Abstract
A new thermal performance measure of automotive brakes is presented which allows the design evaluation of a brake relative to its effective use of rotor material in a single stop or during continued braking. Approaches for improving thermal performance are discussed. Various temperature measurement schemes are evaluated and typical test results are presented.
