Energy Calculation for Brakes

It is calculated as the product of movement kinetic energy and rotation energy.

where:

 

m

mass of braked mass

 

v

speed of braked mass

 

I

moment of inertia is a measure of the tendency of the force to rotate the body upon which it acts about an axis of inertia of braked mass

  ω

revolutions/speed of braked mass [rad/s]
