Abstract
Disc brakes are exposed to severe operating conditions due to high thermal loads during the braking proces. These high thermal loads, which are caused by the contact friction between the disc brake and the brake pads, can lead to the breakdown of the whole mechanism. The main goal of the paper is to determine the heat distribution on the disc brake due to thermal loads. Therefore, the main principles of heat transfer by conduction and convection are studied. The analysis was conducted using the finite element method in the environment of Autodesk Inventor Nastran.
