    • Air jet cooling of brake discs 

      MURRAY, DARINA BRIDGET; TORRANCE, ARCHIBALD ANDREW; MURRAY, DARINA BRIDGET; TORRANCE, ARCHIBALD ANDREW (Institution of Mechanical Engineers, 2008)
      This paper reports on an investigation of a novel approach to the cooling of brake discs, based on the application of impinging air jets. This has the capacity to enhance the heat transfer coefficients at the disc surface ...
    • Control of Grinding Temperature by High Speed Air Jets 

      TORRANCE, ARCHIBALD ANDREW; MURRAY, DARINA BRIDGET; BABIC, DARKO M. (Bled, 2004)
      Grinding, like other abrasive processes, may generate high local temperatures along the arc of cut. These can cause various forms of surface damage in the most sensitive finishing phase of the manufacturing cycle. Traditional ...
