Computing the convection coefficient of a brake disc

I estimated the heat convection coefficient of a Formula SAE car. Let me share what I learned.

Estimating the working temperature of a brake disc

I used a lumped-body approach to approximate the properties of a brake disc and simulated its temperature increase after 100 braking maneuvers.

Brake system load distribution study - MATLAB approach

I studied the brake load distribution of a Formula car using a simple Matlab script. Let me show you how I did it.
