The Temperature Mode of the Carbon-Carbon Multi-Disc Brake in the View of the Interrelations of Its Operating Characteristics

In this paper, a methodology for conducting a computer simulation of the frictional heating process of a multi-disc braking system is proposed. The single braking of a system of three identical discs made of carbon–carbon (C/C) carbon frictional composite material (CFCM) is considered. In order to d...
