    The brake disc rotor is made of gray cast iron because it is hard, resistant to wear, and dissipates heat well. The disc brake consists of the disc, caliper, tubing, and other components. When braking, hydraulic pressure pushes the pistons outwards to clamp the brake pads against the rotating disc, generating friction to slow the vehicle. Parameters like disc diameter, thickness, and vehicle specifications are considered to design the disc based on the vehicle mass and size. For a small car like the Alto, the disc diameter is typically 70-79% of the wheel rim diameter, or 213-215mm thick. The disc thickness is usually 10-30mm depending on solid or ventilated design, with 10mm

    BRAKE DISC ROTOR DESIGN:

    Rotors are made of gray cast iron for following reasons It is relatively hard and resists wear.
    It is cheaper than steel or aluminum.
    It absorbs and dissipates heat well to cool the brakes.
    The disc brake mainly consists of the brake disc, cylinder, brake caliper, tubing, hydraulic
    power source and other components. In braking, the high-pressure hydraulic oil into the hole
    by the pressure, push the piston moves to the right, while promoting the rack to the left, both
    sides stepped up the brake disc to achieve braking.
    The main technical parameters are the rated braking torque, braking radius, disc diameter,
    disc thickness, the radius of the brake linings, brake clearance, the work chamber push rod
    stroke, the piston rod axial displacement, chamber push rod stroke, friction plate opening
    force, the brake lining thickness, the total area of the two brake pads, brake efficiency and
    brake efficiency performance factor and so on. Given the basic parameters of a light vehicle
    shown in Table.

    The brake diameter:


    The brake diameter D should be possible to get bigger, then be increased effective radius of
    the brake can reduce the brake caliper clamping force, lining the block to reduce the unit
    pressure and temperature. Limited by the diameter of the rim, brake disc diameter is usually
    chosen as the rim diameter of 70 ~79%.
    Therefore we have,
    Diameter of rim of wheel

    = 0.3048 m

    But, Diameter of rotor disc is 70 to 79 % of the diameter of rim.


    Therefore, Diameter of rotor disc = 0.70 diameter of the rim
    = 0.70 0.3048
    = 0.21336 m
    = 213.33 mm
    In alto car diameter of disc is 215 mm.

    The thickness of the brake disc:


    The brake disc thickness has impact on the quality and the temperature rise when the brake
    disc working. To make the quality more smaller, should not take the thickness of the brake
    disc larger; and in order to reduce the temperature, the thickness of the brake disc should not
    be taken too small. The brake disc can be made solid, or air in the middle of the disc, a
    ventilation channel is casted for the need of cooling. Generally, the desirable solid brake disc
    thickness is range of 10~20mm, the thickness of ventilated brake discs is more 20~30mm. So,
    the brake disc thickness B is taken as 10mm solid discs.
    Taking, Disc thickness t = 10 mm
