Developed was a general theoretical model for predicting temperatures within stators, rotors, rim, torque tube, tire, fuse plug and bead seat of a typical brake assembly. The four phases of the investigation encompass the temperature measurement analysis, the brake and component analysis, the full-scale brake test, and the correlation of results. Temperatures were measured with thermocouples and predicted to the finite difference method. In the full scale brake test the theoretical results were put to a practical test on a multi-disc brake. Test results were used to calculate convective/radiative heat transfer coefficients. (de Posamentier)
