Thermal Analysis of a Magnetic Brake Using Infrared Techniques and 3D Cell Method with a New Convective Constitutive Matrix

In this work we analyse the temperature distribution in a conductor disk in transitory regime. The disk is in motion in a stationary magnetic field generated by a permanent magnet and so, the electric currents induced inside it generate heat. The system acts as a magnetic brake and is analysed using...
