Temperature in a Frictionally-Heated Ceramic-Metal Patch and Cast Iron Disc during Braking

Abstract

Analytical solution of a boundary-value heat conduction problem of friction for the friction couple consisting of a semi-infinite foundation and a plane-parallel strip sliding at a linear velocity over its surface, for two thermal boundary conditions on the upper surface of the strip (zero temperature and thermally insulated) is obtained. The results of numerical evaluation of the temperature fields in the strip and the foundation and the maximum contact temperature are presented in graphic form.
