Abstract

The hard particles in the copper-based powder metallurgic material of a brake pad for a wind turbine brake falls off and presses into the surface of the brake disc to form abrasive particles under high-speed and heavy-load working conditions. The presence of abrasive particles will produce abrasive wear with micro-scratch and micro-scribe on the copper-based material of the brake pad. The critical scratch depth effect in the abrasive wear process is proposed based on the critical depth effect of the metal removal process at the micro-scale. The abrasive wear is divided into two types: scratch wear and scratch wear, which is proposed according to the comparison of the actual scratch depth and the critical scratch depth. The range of braking speeds and friction coefficients in abrasive wear is determined by the recommended parameters of the disc brake. The ABAQUS2020 software is used to simulate and analyze the micro-scale abrasive wear of a brake pad. The brake strain/stress curves of the brake pad under different brake speeds and friction coefficients are compared and analyzed for two abrasive wear types based on the range of braking parameters, and the key factors affecting abrasive wear are proposed.
