eighties [5]. Currently, although of not simpleusage and requiring previous understanding ofthe basics of fluidmechanics and heat transfercoupled with knowledge of flows numericalmodeling, CFD has significantly gainedpreference in the automotive industry designprocessas tool forpredictingcomplex flowandheat transfer behaviour in regions whereotherwiseverylaboriousandtimeconsumingbyacombinationofnode‐to‐surfaceandsurface‐to‐surfacecontactelements[6].Gao and Lin [7] stated that there wasconsiderable evidence to show that the contacttemperature is an integral factor reflecting thespecific power friction influence of combinedeffectof load,speed,frictioncoefficient,andthethermophysicalanddurabilitypropertiesofthematerials of a frictional couple. Experimentsshowed that the friction coefficient in generaldecreased with increasing sliding speed andapplied load,but increasedwith increasingdisctemperature up to 300 °C and then decreasedabove this temperature. The specific wear ratewas found to increase with increasing slidingspeedanddisctemperature[8].Nouby et al [9] introduced a nontraditionalevaluation tool to examine the effects ofdifferentmaterials,inpracticalapplications,thatare used in fabricating disc brake componentsforcommonlyusedorspecialrequirementssuchas heavy‐duty performance and racing cars. Anextension of the FEmodels discussed earlier isan experimental set upworkwould beneeded.Asresult,brakediscconvectivecoolinganalysisandoptimizationisnowadaysmostlycarriedoutusingCFDcommercialcodes,e,g.[10].Many investigations of analysis of heat flowthrough theventilateddiscbrakesare reportedin the literature. Michael and Roland [11]discussedtheairflowpatternsinthediscrotors.Wallis et al [12] carried out a numerical studyusingFluentondiscrotorbladestoexaminetheeffects of local heat and mass transfer of theaxial gap distances for a single and co‐rotatingdisc. The study of single rotating disc showedthat heat and mass transfer coefficient areenhanced considerably by decreasing the hubheight. In the sliding contact process, atemperature variation in the contacting bodiesthat resulted from frictional heating will causemany related engineering problems, such as

wear, fusion, and deformation. Since Blok [13]and Jaeger and Carslaw [14] pioneered thestudies of temperature rise at the contactsurfacesdue tomovingheat surfaces, therearemore researches aimed at studying thetemperature rise and distribution. Vick andFurey [15] deduced the base theory of thefrictional heat and calculated a set of regularlyarranged contact areas’ temperaturedistribution; Chen et al. [16] used the classictheory to calculate the local temperature risethat greatly influences the glue,wear, and localplastic deformation. Chen and Li [17]established a wear model to simulate slidingprocesses in order to analyse the frictionalheating. Bogdanovich and Tkachuk [18]presented some experiments to understandthermal phenomena in a sliding contact,revealing that asperities in contact were foundto undergo the pulse effect of the temperatureapproaching the melting point of one of thefriction members. The friction heat generatedbetweentwoslidingbodiescausesthermoelasticdeformation, which alters the contact pressuredistribution. This coupled thermo‐mechanicalprocess is referred to as frictionally‐excitedthermoelastic instability (TEI) [19]. Abu Bakarand Ouyang [20] adjusted the surface profilesusing measured data of the surface height andproducedamorerealisticmodelforbrakepads.Direct contact interaction between disc brakecomponents is represented three‐dimensionalFE model of the disc brake corner thatincorporates awheel hub and steering knucklethat was developed and validated at bothcomponentsandassembly levels topredictdiscbrake squeal. In addition, the real pad surfacetopography,negativefriction–velocityslope,andfriction damping were considered to increasethe prediction accuracy of the squeal. Brakesquealisahighfrequencynoiseproducedwhendriver decelerates and/or stops the vehiclemoving at low speed. It is the noise caused byself‐excited vibration generated by the frictionforcevariationbetweenthefrictionmaterialandrotor.It isaphenomenonofdynamicinstabilitythat occurs at one or more the naturalfrequencies of the brake system. The clutchtribological behaviours depend significantly onthe dynamic contact temperature of thefrictional surfaces, which in turn is related tonormal pressure load, relative sliding velocityandthenatureoftheinvolvedsurfaces[21].Theinterfacetemperaturehasmomentousinfluence

on friction and wear effects, with potentialfailures caused by high thermal levels andthermo mechanical stresses. It is well knownthat the temperature sensitivity of frictionmaterials is a critical aspect wishing to ensuretheir smoothand reliable functioning. In fact, itinfluencesthethermo‐elasticinstabilities,whichin turn alter the friction performance at thebraking junctions [22]. In the front wheel, forexample,discbrakepadsabsorbamajoramount(up to 80 %) of the total kinetic energy of anautomobile. This causes the generation of hightemperature up to 370 °C on the disc. Theseverity of such temperature rise is furthermanifested in the form of a very high flashtemperature up to 600 °C at the contactingasperities[23].Atsuchhightemperatures,padssuffer from a loss of effectiveness called “fade”because of a reduction in the kinetic frictioncoefficient. High interfacial temperatures canlead to a decrease in shear strength of the padand consequently a decrease in frictional forcewhich induces fade [24]. Thus, correlating thefrictioncoefficienttotheoperatingtemperaturelevelforthecoupledfrictionsurfacesisprobablythe most critical point in designing safe andeffectivebrakingsystemsanditisnotsurprisingthat many researchers pay their attention totheoretical models for surface temperatureevaluation as well as to surface temperaturemeasurements. A lot of studies about heattransferatthecoupledinterfacesarereportedinliterature which takes into account thesuperposition of several phenomena, eachdescribed by a number of simplifyingassumptions: experimental, analytical andnumericalmethodsareattemptedtounderstandand to predict wear effects. From anexperimental standpoint, the system relativemotion, its geometry and the high thermalgradients which are typically attained makeexperimental temperature detection a complexmatter if one wishes to use thermocoupleslocateddirectlyatthe frictioninterface[25‐27].Therefore, “non‐contact measurements”including optical or infrared methods could bethe solution and early works are appearing inthissense[28‐31].Thelattertechniqueseemstobe the most effective and valuable due to itsability toperformcontinuous temperaturemaprecordingwithrelativelyhighresolutionswhencompared toother traditionalmethodsbut it istoconsiderthattheareatofocusonis“hidden”by the coupled surfaces. Due to the described

difficulties in the experimental approach, inrecentyears,thefiniteelementmethod[32]hasbecome the preferred method for studying theproblemathandwhilefewanalyticalmodelsarealsoavailable[33].However,acriticalanalysisofthe above mentioned works allows to clearlyconcluding that, often, numerical predictions fortemperature distribution aren’t adequatelyvalidated by experimental tests. Spulber andVoloaca [34] proposed a new simulationmethodof a disc brake thermal stress resistance, fordifferent temperatures, by interactive processingof images obtained by thermography.Temperature evaluation for different workingregimescanbemadebyrecordingandprocessingthermograms of a disc brake heated inside thelaboratory by an external heating source. Takenpicturesalongthetemperaturevariation,fromtheambientvaluetoavalueclosetorealoneobtainedon the usual experiments, are processed usingimageanalysesoftwares.In the work of Mosleh et al. [35] a brake dustgeneratedinvehiclebrakescausesdiscolorationofwheelsand,moreimportantly,theemissionofparticles suspected of health hazard in theenvironment. Laboratory testing of brake padmaterials against cast iron discs revealed thatthe majority of wear particles aresubmicrometer in size. Wear particles with asizeof350nmhadthehighestpercentageintheparticlesizedistributionplots,regardlessofthemagnitudeof thenominal contactpressureandthe sliding speed. The precise calculation foreachoftherateofwear[36‐38]andtheinternalenergyof frictionclutchwill lead toKnowledgethe lifetime of friction material with highaccuracy. Due to their predominantlysubmicrometer size, a significant amount ofbrake dust particles may be inhalable inenvironmental and occupational exposuresituations.Abdullah et al. [39] used the finite elementmethod to study the contact pressure andstresses during the full engagement period ofthe clutches using different contact algorithms.Moreover, sensitivity study for the contactpressureispresentedtoindicatetheimportanceofthecontactstiffnessbetweencontactsurfaces.According to Altuzarra et al. [40], if the slidingspeed is high, the resulting thermo‐mechanicalfeedbackisunstable,leadingtothedevelopmentof non‐uniform contact pressure and local high

temperature with important gradients called‘hot spots’. The formation of such localized hotspotsisaccompaniedbyhighlocalstressesthatcan lead to material degradation and eventualfailure[41].Also,thehotspotscanbeasourceofundesirable frictional vibrations, known in theautomotive disc brake community as ‘hotroughness’or‘hotjudder’[42].Theventilateddiscislighterthanthesoliddisc,and additional convective heat transfer occurson the surface of the vent hall. Thus, theventilated disc can control its temperature riseand minimize the effects of thermal problemssuch as the variation of the pad frictioncoefficient,brakefadeandvaporlock[43,44].The ventilated disc, however, may increasejudder problems by inducing an uneventemperature field around the disc. Also, thethermal capacity of the ventilated disc is lessthan thatof thesoliddisc, and the temperatureof the ventilated disc can rise relatively fasterthan that of the solid disc during repetitivebraking [45]. Therefore, thermal capacity andthermal deformation should be carefullyconsidered when modifying the shape of theventilated disc. Recently, Abdullah andSchlattmann [46] carried out detailed oftemperaturedistributionfordryfrictionsystem(flywheel,clutchdiscandpressureplate)duringrepeated engagements. The finite elementmethod used to compute the temperature fieldfor clutch disc under different pressuredistributions. Two types of pressuredistributions were applied between contactsurfaces uniform pressure and the linearpressure with disc radius (maximum at innerradius andminimum at outer radius) based ontheoryofclutchdesign.Theeffectofconvectionis considered in both cases. The same authors[47] applied the finite element method tocalculate the heat generated on the surfaces offriction clutch and temperature distribution forcase of bands contact between flywheel andclutch disc, and between the clutch disc andpressureplate(onebadcentralandtwobands)andcomparedwithcaseoffullcontactbetweensurfaces for single engagement and repeatedengagements. Furthermore, their work showseffect of pressure capacity on the temperaturefield,when thepressure is a function of time ,three kinds of pressure variation with time(constant,linearandparabolic)arepresented.

In this study, we will make a modeling of thethermal behaviour of the dry contact betweenthe discs of brake pads at the time of brakingphase;thestrategyofcalculationisbasedonthesoftware ANSYS 11. This last is comprehensivemainlyfortheresolutionofthecomplexphysicalproblems. As a current study of this problemANSYS Simulations with less assumption andless program restrictions have been performedfor the thermo mechanical case. Temperaturedistribution obtained by the transient thermalanalysis is used in the calculations of thestressesondiscsurface.2. NUMERICALPROCEDURE

It absorbs and dissipates heat well tocoolthebrakes.

It is very difficult to exactly model the brakedisc,inwhichtherearestillresearchesaregoingon to find out transient thermal behaviour ofdiscbrakeduringbrakingapplications.There isalways a need of some assumptions to modelany complex geometry. These assumptions aremade, keeping inmind the difficulties involvedinthetheoreticalcalculationandtheimportanceof the parameters that are taken and thosewhich are ignored. In modeling, we alwaysignorethethingsthatareoflessimportanceandhave little impact on the analysis. Theassumptions are always made depending uponthedetailsandaccuracyrequiredinmodeling.DuetotheapplicationofbrakesonthecarDiscbrake rotor, heat generation takes place due tofriction and this thermal flux has to beconducted and dispersed across the Disc Rotorcross section. The condition of braking is verymuch severe and thus the thermal analysis hastobecarriedout.Thethermalloadingaswellasstructure is axis‐symmetric.

To simplify the analysis, several assumptionshavealsobeenmadeasfollows[50]

Allkineticenergyatdiscbrakerotorsurfaceisconvertedintofrictionalheatorheatflux.In other words, a high amount of kineticenergy is converted into heat energy atinterfaces according to the first law ofthermodynamicsduringtheslippingperiodand the heat generated between contactsurfaces will be dissipated by conductionbetween frictionclutchcomponentsandbyconvectiontotheenvironment.

Theheat transfer involved for thisanalysisonly conduction and convection process.This heat transfer radiation can beneglected in this analysis because of smallamountwhich is5%to10%[51]. Indeed,the heat radiation only plays an importantroleathightemperatureandlowspeeds.

The disc material is considered ashomogeneous and isotropic, becauseYoung’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and thethermal expansion coefficient are assumedtobeconstantforisotropic.

The domain is considered as axis‐symmetric. The temperature field issymmetrywithrespecttothecentralplaneofthebrakedisc

Since the axis‐symmetricmodelisconsideredallthenodesonthe hub radius are fixed. So the nodaldisplacements in the hub become zero, i.e. inradial,axialandangulardirections.5.1InfluenceofconstructionofthediscFigure 16 shows the variation of thetemperature versus time during the total timesimulation of braking for a fall disc and aventilated disc. The highest temperatures arereachedatthecontactsurfaceofdisc‐pads.Thestrong rise in temperature is due to the shortdurationof thebrakingphase and to the speedof the physical phenomenon. For the two typesof discs, one disc has an immediate, fasttemperature rise followed by a fall intemperatureafteracertaintimeofbraking.

5.2InfluenceofbrakingmodeThediscbrakeandthewheelaredimensionedaccording to the performance and economicrequirements of the vehicle. They mustsupport increasingly greater mechanical andthermalloadsatmeanvelocitiesinpermanentprogression.Amongtheparametershavinganinfluenceonthethermalbehaviourofthediscbrake is thebrakingmode,whichdependsonthe driver and the traffic conditions. Certainmodes of braking can involve the destructionof the disc and consequently, cause serioustraffic accidents. A braking mode isrepresented in the form of braking cycles,which describe the variation of vehicle speedversustime(v=f(t)).During vehicle operating, the braking system issubjected to repeated actions of the driver. Inthis study,we considered two types of brakingwhose total simulation time is estimated to beequalto135s.Thisisintendedtodeterminethesaturation temperature disc under a cyclicthermal load. This cycle is repeated severaltimes: the first mode consists of braking andacceleration,andthesecondconsistsofbraking,coolinganddeceleration.Figure 19 shows a driving cycle of fourteensuccessivebraking,intheformofsawtooth.

Figure23showsthecomparisonofthechangeintemperatureofthediscforacyclicbrakingprocessbetweenthefirstmodeandthesecondmode.Fortwo contours, it can be noted that thetemperatures in the disc rise greatly with eachapplication of the brake, then begin theexponential decline. The more the number ofrepetitions of braking increases, the more themaximumtemperaturesincrease.Theinitialstateofthediscchangesaftereachcycle;thedowntimesallowonly onepartial cooling.After each coolingphase, the disc begins to warm again. In fact,duringsuccessivebraking’sthecapacityofcoolingof the disc is insufficient to lower the surfacetemperaturetoneartheinitialtemperature,whichcausesanaccumulationofenergyandthereforeahigher surface temperature. These results show,that the transient thermal behaviour of a discbrakedependsonthebrakingcycleimposedanditisdominatingbecause itdictatesthecoolingtimeof the disc. According to Fig. 23, it can be notedthat in the case of braking cycle mode 2, areduction of the temperature of approximately535 °C is 45.19% comparedwith the first cycle.Weconcludethatthebrakingmodewithacoolingphaseinfluencestheheattransfersinthediscverypositively, which involves a reduction in themaximum temperature of the interface, whichcausescrackingandmechanicalwear.

5.3ComparisonbetweenfullandventilateddiscIn this part, we presented the cartographies oftotalanddirectionalheatfluxandaswellasthetemperaturedistributioninafullandventilateddiscandofcastironFG15foreachmomentwithbraking.Thetemperaturedistributionofthediscat the beginning braking (with t=0.25 s) isinhomogeneous. According to experimentaltests' carried out by research , braking oftenbegin with the formation from hot circlesrelativelyon theuniformsurfacesof thedisc inthecircumferentialdirection,movingradiallyonthe disc and transforming then into hot points((hotspot)).Theappearanceofthephenomenonof the hot points is due to the nonuniformdissipationofheatflux.Concerning the heat flux, it can be notedaccording toFigs.25and28 that themaximumvalueofthetotalheatfluxislocatedonthelevelof thecalorific throatat theendofbraking (t=3.5 s); this is explained by the increase in thegradientsandthethermalconcentrationsinthiszone.Thecalorific throat ismanufacturedsoasto limit the heat flux coming from the frictiontracksandmovingtowardsthebowlofthediscbrake inordertoavoidtheexcessiveheatingoftherimandthetire.Duringtheheating,thediscis tightened to dilate in the hot zones fromwhere creating of compressive stresses withplasticization.Ontheotherhand,duringcooling,there is appearance of residual stresses oftraction. The disc is thus subjected during itsrotationtoconstraintstraction/compression.a. Fulldisc

thermal behaviour of the disc brake. Throughthenumericalsimulation, itcouldbenotedthatthe quality of the results concerning thetemperature field is influenced by severalparameterssuchas:

• Technologicalparametersillustratedbythedesign.

• Numerical parameters represented by thenumberofelementsandthestepoftime.

• Physicalparametersexpressedbythetypesofmaterials.

• Brakingmodeimplemented.Regarding the calculation results, it can be saythat they are satisfactorily in agreement withthose commonly found in the literatureinvestigations. It would be interesting to solvethe problem in thermo mechanical disc brakeswith an experimental study to validate thenumerical results, forexample,on testbenches,in order to demonstrate a good agreementbetweenthemodelandreality.Regarding the outlook, there are threerecommendations for the expansion of futurework related to disc brake that can be done tofurther understand the effects of thermomechanical contact between the disc and pads,therecommendationsareasfollows:

1. Experimentalstudytoverifytheaccuracyofthenumericalmodeldeveloped.

2. Tribological and vibratory study of thecontactdisc–pads;

3. Study of dry contact sliding under themacroscopic aspect (macroscopic state ofthesurfacesofthediscandpads).
