Abstract
This paper aims to study the thermal analysis of brake discs applied to a baja SAE prototype in the years of 2019 and 2020 with two different materials, steel SAE 1045 and stainless steel AISI 304. Thus, to analyze the performance of both discs and materials, it was considered 25 braking cycles. As the boundary conditions for the numerical simulations using transient thermal analysis in Ansys, it was applied heat flux in the friction region of pads and disc. It was also applied convection and radiation in the disk body. From the results, it was observed a better heat dissipation of the steel 1045. Finally, the 2019 brake disc was shown to distribute the temperature better when compared to 2020.
