Abstract

Methods for estimating the cooling time of a brake assembly are disclosed. Methods are provided comprising receiving, by the processor, a first temperature of a brake assembly at a first time, receiving, by the processor, a second temperature of a brake assembly at a second time, wherein the second time occurs a fixed period after the first time, determining, by the processor, a temperature decay coefficient ('α') of the brake assembly based on the first temperature and the second temperature and calculating, by the processor, an estimated total time to cool the brake assembly to a predetermined temperature based on the first temperature, the predetermined temperature and α.
