EFFECT OF REPEATED VEHICLE BRAKING ON THE WARMING OF SELECTED PARTS OF THE VEHICLE [PDF]
The friction brakes convert a significant part of a vehicle’s kinetic energy into thermal energy. Some of its parts is distributed to the places around the brakes, and another part is accumulated in several vehicle components.
