An analytical model to determine temperature in a single brake disc of multi-disc system is proposed. The model considers the convective cooling on the lateral surfaces of the disc and structure of composite friction material. Calculations were carried out for a disc made of carbon friction composites material Termar-ADF. The influence of heat transfer with environment, length of bundles with fibers, and concentration of fibers in composite on the temperature of the disc was investigated during single braking with constant deceleration.
