The present paper discusses and examine a comparative study of the materials of the carbon ceramic matrix and the gray cast iron disk. This disk brake research is used to develop the braking mechanism of passenger cars. The Ansys package used to determine the distribution of temperature, induced heat flux, equivalent stress and deformation due to heat through the disk brake. To analyze the temperature distribution across the disk using axis-symmetric components, steady state thermal analysis was performed. Further structural analysis is often performed through thermal coupling analysis. Competitive analysis of disk brake material that yields less deformation and equal stress (von mises stress) at low temperature around the disk is feasible. For better validity, both outcomes are compared. Therefore, both findings provide a better understanding of the thermal characteristics of the disk brake rotor and enable the automotive industry to create an optimal and reliable disk brake rotor.
