About Whirlpool Fonon-kodiaran'ny Kodiarana

Whirlpool dia fonon-kodiaran'ny kodiarana natao mba hampangatsiaka ny disiky ny fren. Ny sampany dia manana endrika toy ny propeller, nakan-tahaka ny propelin'ny fiaramanidina. Mandritra ny fanavonana, ny fifanaperana eo amin'ny takelaky ny fren sy ny disiky ny fren dia mampiakatra haingana ny mari-pana, ary ny hafanana be dia mampihena ny faharetan'ny disiky. Ny endriky ny Whirlpool dia manangona ny rivotra manodidina ny kodiarana ary mitarika izany mankany amin'ny foibem-pisian'ny disiky ny fren. Ny fikorian'ny rivotra dia mampangatsiaka ny disiky mandritra ny fandehanan'ny fiara. Ny fonon-kodiarana dia vita amin'ny alliage titanium ary novokarina tamin'ny fomba fandrendrehana (casting) sy fitaovana CNC.

Unique Properties: Conventional wheels do not have the function of cooling the brake discs. This wheel hub has a good air diversion function, which can quickly collect the air around the wheel hub and spread to the center of the disc, which can extend the life of the brake disc by cooling.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 432mm x Depth 203mm x Height 432mm.
Tags: Wheel Hub, Whirlpool, Cool, Titanium, Brake Discs
Production Technology: This wheel is made of titanium alloy material, using pouring and CNC processes, taking into account the function and aesthetics of the product.
Design Challenge: How to use the knowledge of fluid mechanics to cool high-speed air vortex and high-temperature brake discs is the most tuned part of the entire design. Through continuous testing, the design team finally found a more ideal wheel shape.
Research: The research of this project is mainly to understand the defects of the product through literature reading, and to evaluate and test the 3D model virtually through the evaluation module in Alias software.
Inspiration: When the car brakes, the temperature of the brake disc rises sharply due to the high-speed friction of the brake disc by the brake pad, which will greatly affect the life of the brake disc. So our team wanted to design a hub that could cool the brake disc when braking. The design of the wheels is inspired by the propellers of an aircraft.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2022 in Changshu and finished in December 2022 in Changshu
Operation Flow: The spokes of this hub are made of a propeller-like structure. When running at high speeds, the hub can cool the high temperatures caused by braking by drawing in air.
