Abstract

The braking system is a crucial component in a vehicle, where its performance is highly influenced by the wheel's rotational speed and the geometry of the brake pad. This study aims to analyze the impact of wheel rotational speed and variations in pad geometry on the temperature of the brake pad. The braking process generates heat due to friction, which, if not properly managed, can reduce braking performance and accelerate brake pad wear. The experiment was conducted at four levels of wheel rotational speed: 1000 RPM, 1500 RPM, 2000 RPM, and 2500 RPM. The testing system was designed using a braking system simulator equipped with a speed sensor (LM393) and a temperature sensor (K-type thermocouple), which were connected to an Arduino microcontroller and displayed in real-time through a Graphical User Interface (GUI) in MATLAB. The test results indicated that both the geometric shape of the brake pads and the wheel rotation speed significantly affected the resulting temperature. Standard brake pads produced the highest temperature at a speed of 2500 RPM, reaching 63.33°C. In contrast, brake pads with holes offered the best performance by maintaining a lower temperature of only 43.00°C. Furthermore, an increase in wheel rotation speed led to a noticeable rise in temperature; for standard pads, the temperature increased from 36.67°C at 1000 RPM to 63.33°C at 2500 RPM. This demonstrates that RPM is a major factor in heat generation due to friction. The MATLAB GUI effectively visualized the relationship between RPM and temperature, facilitating the analysis and evaluation of the data.
