| Summary: | In this study, two different ventilated brake discs were manufactured and their braking force performances and heat generations were investigated experimentally together with a solid disc. Braking force outputs were examined in sudden and continuous braking conditions and disc temperatures were simply measured in continuous braking conditions. Fourteen pedal forces were used in sudden braking tests and eight periodic measurements were executed in continuous braking tests. Experiment results showed that ventilation applications not only increased the brake force outputs up to 42.6 %, but also reduced the heat formation on discs up to 31.5 % depending on test conditions. |
