Design and Analysis of Ventilated Disc Brake by Using Different Materials: A Review

Abstract

Abstract: Disc rotor is component which is used in automotive vehicle wheels to apply brakes, the concept which works during brake is frictional resistance between pad and rotor. Due to frictional resistance the heat gets generated between disc and pad so, in order to reduce the effect of heat the rotor is designed as ventilated disc. The common material which is used to manufacture the disc rotor is Grey Cast Iron. The purpose of this review paper is to study the behavior and kinds of work has been done before on Disc Brake and based on this review paper we have decided to do structural analysis on disc brake rotor using different materials like GREY CAST IRON, TITANIUM, MAGNESIUM ALLOY, ALUMINUM ALLOY, and STRUCTURAL STEEL and then compare the results of different materials with conventional material (GREY CAST IRON) that is usually used in disc brake rotor. The analysis will be done by using CATIA for modeling and ANSYS WORKBENCH 18.0 for structural analysis. Based on previous research the objective of this review paper is “Design and analysis of ventilated disc brake by using different materials”
