In order to solve the problems of existing magnetorheological brakes with large size, small braking torque and poor heat dissipation performance,based on the contradiction analysis method and conflict matrix of TRIZ, a novel comb-type magnetorheological brake applied to electric vehicles was designed, and the braking torque and temperature field simulation mathematical model were established. The various performance indicators of the brake were verified through simulation and experimental study. The results show that the magnetic field of comb-type magnetorheological brake is concentrated in the comb-type brake disk part, and the maximum braking torque increases gradually with the increasing of input current, the saturation current is as 3.6 A, the braking torque is as 334 N·m, and the torque/volume ratio is as 65.215 kN/m2. The heat of the brake is mainly generated in the comb-type brake disk part, which gradually spreads from the brake disk to the casing and the shaft body with the passage of time. The paper verifies that the novel comb-type magnetorheological brake has better heat dissipation performance when achieving continuous braking.
