Abstract

The objective of this paper is to find a suitable material for disc brakes that can dissipate heat very fast to the environment than others. They are subjected to wear and tear, which might have an impact on their performance. The simulation findings will help us figure out the temperature, pressure, and heat that can be withstand at its maximum. If it manages to dissipate heat properly it can avoid the distortion, which will be produced in the disc, which leads to thermal cracking of the disc leading to disc failure. To eliminate such flaws, we need to develop a disc brake material that can endure a specific level of heat and friction while maintaining its efficiency over time. In this work, 3 different disc brake materials, namely Al356, cast iron, and SS420, are chosen for thermal analysis by using ANSYS simulations and the results will be compared among.
