The main idea of this article was to compare the results of new design electric brake to the older version of hydraulic brake in laboratory tests. The energy of braking should be very similar due to the same mass of the airplane. That is why the laboratory tests of both brakes were took place in the same stand. Of course, the parameters were similar but not at all. The main idea was to create the solution, which could be used in vehicle like airplane. The electric brakes could replace traditional hydraulic brake solution. The results could be interesting for every researcher who is interested in brakes. Other important idea of this article was to describe the tests of new electric brake prototype. The purpose of the tests was to check designing of electric brakes. The electric brake prototype should ensure sufficient efficiency, safety, reliability and durability during braking, which is required in certification processes and is particularly important when researching innovative solutions. It was really important to verify the design and check the parameters. Of course, there is really important to remember that in every new type of the prototype solutions there are many pros and cons, which are typical only for considered design. Nowadays every electric brake design is different because there is a lot of new concept.
The purpose of this article was to show two thing thermal issues theory and thermovision tests in the laboratory. The main idea of this article was to describe the thermal issues theory of interesting problem base on the thermovision tests of new type electric brake prototype. After the creation of new product the designer needed to know how behave the prototype of the brake during tests with higher energy which could increase the temperatures on the object in our case of the electric brake prototype. The first step in that kind of issues was thermal analysis, which is very useful to define and subscribe the thermal issues. The second step it was measurement of the temperature, which was really significant during the electric brake tests. It was really important to check the temperature of engines. If there was some influence to the brake during braking. One of the method was using special thermal camera. The camera was checking the temperature during whole test after beginning the test to the end of the trial. The full spectrum of the temperature allowed the author to verify if there was some influence of temperature to the new electric brake prototype. The thermocouple was other type of sensors, which was normally used in our laboratory methodology to check temperature during the test. The pyrometer was other type of the method, which was used to measure the temperature after the test. The results of this measurement were subscribed in this article.
In this article, the author focused on the two main issues. Firstly, the assembly phase of the new type of electric brake prototype was described and secondly author introduced the initial tests of individual components. The assembly phase of the new prototype of the electric brake was very significant. In this stage, the parts were fitted and mounted. The new functionality of new type prototype was checked and the designing was verified. If there were some mounting problems this was proper time to correct the dimensions and exchange parts. Sometimes the materials or even or heat treatment of some part were exchanged. In that kind of prototype, it was really important to check electric parts like motors during the load. The most important issue was to find the best solution. The motors weight should have been as small as possible and the nominal torque should have been enough for normal working of prototype. In the initial tests of individual components, the real parameters were tested and possibility of using the parts was checked too. During designing phase, the parameters were defined and the tests results gave the answers for the possibility of real working on the object. The most important parameters there were the motors parameters and the possibility of mechanism force transmission.
