Abstrakt: Many innovations and improvements were happened in automobile industry in the last two decades. Disc brake system is one of the most important improvements in the braking system out of these improvements. In the earlier years, disc brakes were used only in racing bikes, but now they are very common. When we apply brakes, there is friction between disc brake rotor and brake pads which leads to generation of heat energy. Hence, these disc brake rotors are subjected to higher temperature in the braking process. This heat energy must be dissipated in proper manner to get the best performance from disc brakes. The aim of this investigation was to study the temperature distribution and total deformation of an automotive disc brake rotor at the time of braking using FEA software i.e., Ansys. We have gone through the literature survey to find the dimensions of disc brake rotor and the material for the same. In this project, we have performed coupled 'Steady state thermal' and 'Static Structural' analysis on the disc brake rotor for the 2 different probable material. The results obtained through this coupled analysis of disc brake rotor, is discussed and we have suggested the best material amongst those 2 different probable materials which will give better thermal as well as static structural behavior.
