Abstract

The ventilated brake discs currently used in passenger trains can be replaced with solid discs when drag braking of long duration need not be designed for. This is a conclusion arrived at in the present study where transient temperatures and stresses induced in the disc during drag braking and during single and repeated stop braking are calculated by use of a previously established analytical model. The results are verified through full-scale experiments carried out on a recently built inertia dynamometer. A forged solid steel disc is compared with a standard ventilated cast iron disc. Measurement techniques and various observations are discussed.
