Abstract

The bachelor thesis deals with the design of the ram air cooling of the disc brake of a racing motorcycle. In the introduction, the principles of brake systems are described and the current methods of their cooling are analysed, especially in the field of motorsport. On the basis of this research, concepts of ram air cooling are engineered and developed to accommodate the limited installation space and aerodynamic constraints of a racing motorcycle. From the preferred version, a prototype is created and tested considering both installation and operational efficiency. The final design is a version of the prototype that has been updated in terms of technical feasibility and possibility of use in real racing conditions. The design documentation is included in the appendix of the bachelor´s thesis.
