Abstract:This paper is focused on the experimental wear characterization of an electromagnetic braking system used for helicopters. The characterization was performed through the evaluation of some monitoring parameters during endurance tests on a test bench and through the visual analysis of the worn surfaces after the tests. The monitoring parameters were the engagement threshold voltage, the release threshold voltage, the inductance, and the braking torque, which are directly correlated with the wear progress. The v… Show more
