Stop being a D$%* and educate me then. I'm not here for you to dance on the grave of what I don't know. I DON'T KNOW HOW HOT THESE THINGS NORMALLY GET. Are you saying it's normal for them to stay too hot to touch? If you go easy on me for not knowing brakes, I won't give you a hard time for not knowing jet engines. Deal?
I do not give a sh*t about jet engines.
Oh and by the way, for 13 yrs I rebuilt turbine engines in the military, from the air splitter (nose cone) to the reduction gear box, and everything inbetween, was trained by the Department of Logistics. And did it well, so if you want to quiz me about how one works and the simplicity of it, then go ahead, I would hate to embarrass you in public.
So you want a education do ya?
Here it is in a nut shell, first thing first, you unlock vehicle, open door, enter vehicle, close the door, put key into ignition, turn to start position then release key, put your seat belt on, apply brake, looks in all four directions, put shifter into reverse, look back thru rear view mirror and proceed to back out of driveway, stop to be sure no oncoming traffic is coming your way, continue to back out, apply brake again, put shifter in drive position, take foot off of brake pedal, put same foot on gas pedal, proceed forward, drive 50 mph till you hit red light, take foot of accelerator pedal and use same foot and apply the brake till you stop, repeat these couple of steps remaining at a constant speed of 50 as you stated until you arrive at diner, turn your turn signal on, take foot off accelerator and apply brake softly to slow down, turn into diner, while turning into diner keep applying brakes to stay at a low speed but not to a complete stop, find parking space, while still dragging brake, once you find parking space turn into such space while still dragging the brakes, to apply fully once you are in parking space completely, while brakes are still applied, put shifter into park position, then release brake pedal. roll up windows, undo seat belt, open door, rotate body sideways till feet are out of vehicle and touching solid ground, step out of vehicle, close door, use transmitter to lock vehicle, step to the front of the car, kneel down, stick finger on front rotor till you can not stand it any longer, with a quick motion bring finger to tongue and suck on it from extreme rotor burn (may blister), stand up after cussing at one self saying to one self damn that is hot, stand up, proceed to rear of vehicle, kneel down, stick same finger on rear rotor, (NOW, I would think that one would of learned lesson from just doing this not 1 minute ago and the pain felt from burning said finger) noticing no burn, get up, go into diner, eat and pay, leave, go reverse route that it took to get to diner to go home, once in house, sit in front of computer, still sucking on swollen finger, thinking to oneself if I should post this to thread asking should my rotors be hot to the touch.
In this explanation you applied brakes about 15-20 times from soft apply to full stop, the vehicle wt 2 tons, one metal object and metallic pad x4 are responsible to bring said vehicle to a stop quickly if needed, two objects joined and are to remain joined for a period of time, friction creates heat, heat is hot, will always be hot, sometimes hotter than normal, depends on variables. Front brakes are your primary source of stopping to up wards of 70% of the demand to stop, the rears make up the difference, so with this in mind, fronts would tend to be hotter than rears and would most likely burn your little finger. How much more tutoring do you want, I am available all day and night if need be. Just let me know if I can be more of assistance.
One more thing, if you are trying to bash me with your so called jet mechanic skills, then I would assume that the theory behind brake heat, friction, and gases emitted would be a simple mind tease. But since you keep asking the same question over and over tells me you are not too well versed in mechanical theory.
