Advanced power transmission system

الملخص EN

Different researches are adopted to modify and enhance automatic transmission by every means.

Whereas, torque converter that represents the most important component in such transmission suffers from some problems that are not completely solved.

In this paper, power transmission system is herein introduced as a unique power transmission system that is not affected by torque converter problems.

This power transmission operates with power splitting concept and is composed of conventional torque converter connected to planetary sets.

Three clutches are used to shift the operating modes and unique positive displacement hydraulic couplings are utilized to regulate performance in power paths.

Also, a modified model used to predict torque converter performance is utilized with planetary gear kinetics to assess the transmission performance.

Moreover, the present system operates with high performance.

Unlike the automatic transmission that operates in line, the present system operates with infinity number of operational bands for each engine speed.
