Hi all,
manchmal antworte ich auf englisch, tut mir leid im Voraus.
the heat generated in the contact between rotor and pad is so dissipated: most of it towards the rotor and minor part in direction of caliper.
prio1 is to cool the rotor (that's why apply cooling channels that should go to the center of the rotor); then, for several other reasons it might be necessary to cool the caliper side, too.
for street homologated applications (like gt3, z06,etc...) the lastenheft allows max 160-165°C temperature of brake fluid. so the cooling of the caliper might be necessary to:
1) preserve from brake fluid boiling
2) not to burn the piston boots (as happended to me many times on my z06)
in my personal experience, for street and track-days application, with a good rotor cooling + high quality brake fluid, there should be no problem...
wenn jemand noch Frage oder Kommentare hat, gerne reden wir zusammen.
