  • CFD modeling and computation of convective heat coefficient transfer of automotive disc brake rotors Ali Belhocine Wan Zaidi Wan-Omar Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) CFD heat flux convection gray cast iron heat transfer coefficient Braking system is one of the basic organs to control a car. For many years, the disc brakes have been used in automobiles for safe retardation of the vehicles. During braking, enormous amount of heat will be generated, and for effective braking, sufficient heat dissipation is essential. The specific air flow surrounding the brake rotor depends on the thermal performance of the disc brake and hence, the aerodynamics is an important in the region of brake components. A CFD analysis is carried out on the braking system as the study of this case, to make out the behaviour of air flow distribution around the disc brake components using ANSYS CFX software. The main object of this work is to calculate the heat transfer coefficient (h) of the full and ventilated brake discs as a function of time using the CDF analysis which will be used later in the transient thermal analysis of the disc in ANSYS Workbench 11.0. 2017 artículo científico 0124-2253 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=504373174002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5043 Revista Científica application/pdf Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas Revista Científica (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.29
