In order to analyze the soundness of ventilated disc brake systems, numerical study was performed with various vane shapes. In particular, two different vane type, and the braking time from 3.0 s to 4.5s with the interval of 0.5s were considered. Transient temperature distributions on the ventilated disc brake assembly were calculated using ANSYS CFX ver. 16.1. To elucidate the soundness of ventilated disc brake systems, moreover, the heat transfer coefficients were evaluated. Results were graphically depicted with different geometrical vane configurations and braking time.
