H = (F*V)/4

What is the heat generated per second at each wheel during braking?

The heat equivalent of the work done in braking at each wheel of the vehicle is the heat generated at each brake drum of each wheel. The braking system exists to convert the energy of a vehicle in motion into thermal energy, more commonly referred to as heat. Ideally, this energy is completely absorbed by the braking system. While this is not entirely the case, for a stopping event at maximum deceleration most of the vehicle’s Kinetic Energy is converted into Thermal Energy.

How to Calculate Wheel Heat Generation Rate?
