Abstract

Brakes are a very vital part of an automobile and with performance, safety and operational life being the most important characteristic, it becomes necessary to have a smooth braking operation throughout its life. The study is focused towards designing, analysing and comparing the result obtained using software Solidworks and ANSYS. Depending upon the usage and purpose, we compare namely two types of brake rotors, drilled and slotted, and suggest where it can be put into use for maximum output by studying its thermal analysis (heat generated) without any structural failures in both the rotors.
