Abstract
To achieve a better solution of disc brake heat transfer problem under heavy duty applications, the accurate prediction of transient field of heat transfer coefficient is significant. Therefore, an appropriate coupling mechanism between flow field and temperature field is important to be considered. In this paper, a transient conjugate heat transfer co-simulation disc brake model has been presented in order to improve the accuracy and feasibility of conventional coupled FE and CFD method. To illustrate the possible utilizations of this co-simulation method, a parameter study has been performed e.g. geometric, material, and braking application. The results show the advantage of the co-simulation method in terms of computing time efficiency and accuracy for solving complex braking heat transfer problem.
