The present invention concerns an aircraft landing gear 500 comprising a wheel rotatably 550 mounted on an axle 520, a first gearing element 571 that rotates with the wheel, a second gearing element 572 configured to mesh with the first gearing element such that rotation of the first gearing element causes rotation of the second gearing element, wherein the second gearing element is connected to a generator 530, such that rotation of the second gearing element causes the generator to generate electrical energy, further comprising a heat dissipation device 100/200 connected to the generator wherein the heat dissipation device comprises an electrical heating element 440 connectable to the generator to receive generated electrical energy and convert it to heat energy, and a fluid receptacle 403 adjacent the heating element, such that fluid in the receptacle can be heated. The present invention also concerns an aircraft landing gear comprising a cavitation braking device, an aircraft and a method of braking.
