Transient temperature characteristics of friction clutch disc considering thermal contact conductance under sliding conditions

Abstract High temperatures are generated due to the sliding contacts between the rubbing surfaces of the friction clutch system.In this work, by considering the effective thermal contact conductance under sliding conditions, a simulation model of a two-dimensional transient temperature field of the clutch disc was developed.A numerical solution Con
