Passive transport safety based on the calculation of the temperature regimes of brake units taking into account their heat dissipation and thermal resistance to heat dissipation

Abstract

The article discusses the conditions for increasing the passive safety of vehicles due to the use of the results of calculating the temperature regime in frictional friction pairs in the design of brake assemblies, both taking into account their active heat dissipation, and taking into account the contact thermal resistances along the path of the dissipated heat flows. This temperature calculation allows, at the design stage of new brake units, to determine their optimal geometric arrangement, taking into account the increased thermal dynamics of friction of friction pairs during their active heat dissipation. In addition, it becomes possible to recommend the optimal frictional pairs of friction in the brake units, taking into account their thermal stability. The use of the above thermal calculations will ensure an increase in the performance of the brake units, which, ultimately, will provide an increase in the passive safety of vehicles.
