Thermo-mechanical Analysis of the Dry Clutches under Different Boundary Conditions

The high thermal stresses, generated between the contacting surfaces of the clutch system (pressure plate, clutch disc and flywheel) due to the frictional heating during the slipping, are considered to be one of the main reasons of clutch failure. A finite element technique has been used to study th...
