摘要：Disc brake systems play a vital role in automobile field like in two wheelers to stop the heavy and highspeed vehicle in less time. In applying the brakes the generation of heat in brake system and its dissipation happensregularly. To improve the efficiency of brake it is necessary to cool the brake system naturally. The ventilated discbrake rotor with vane passages formed between braking surfaces; acts as a centrifugal fan and facilitates the requiredair flow for cooling. Geometrical configuration of brake plays a key role in brake system. Hence it is necessary to makemodifications in the existing rotor geometry vane passages and which will consequently contribute for better flowdevelopment. In this project, an attempt is made to analyse the disc brake system by increasing the number of vanesand the vane material in the disc which improves the cooling rate and overall performance of disc. Here a brake systemwith 18 number of vanes and 32 number of vanes are considered and made analysis using ANSYS simulation andcompared the results of both conditions. Aluminium alloy material is considered for analysis and the number of vanesis increased from 18 to 32 in count. By considered the obtained simulated results it is concluded that the directionalheat flux and the total heat flux varied rapidly, but the temperature difference is very negligible at the minimum leveland remains same at maximum level.
