Análisis comparativo de un disco de freno original frente a un alterno para un vehículo Chevrolet Aveo mediante simulación y pruebas experimentales.

Abstract

When we carry out a comparative analysis of the original brake discs versus an alternator one, by means of experimental tests and simulation by the finite element method using CAE software, its particularities will be established with the obtaining of data in the tests. In this way, it is intended to help to the society that does not have the appropriate knowledge in order to acquire spare parts of this type with information of the characteristics, properties of each one. Experimental tests were developed in order to analyze the properties and internal structure that the discs show; taking accounts as a reference the norms INEN and ASTM for obtaining accurate and correct results. For the essay reduction, a bank of tests of the technical high school Daniel Cordova Toral was repaired in the city of Cuenca, the test pieces used were the same discs and pads acquired and the respective measurements were carried out within a time interval established for the analysis of the data. In the simulation we use a transient analysis through the Ansys software, designed both disc and pad in SolidWorks, the properties of the material of each one were defined that allow to differentiate the original discs from the alternate ones, and the conditions of study were established in order to realize the simulation finding in this way the possible efforts and temperatures that can reach. The original brake discs are more appropriate for the use in the vehicle because they have better mechanical characteristics than the alternating discs. It is recommended to develop a thermal analysis of each material, with different degrees of temperature and cooling modes in order to know the results under these demands.
