Most of us don't get to choose what kind of clutch sits between the crankshaft and the transmission – that decision has already been made on the factory floor. So whether your clutch is as wet as a ...

Drag torque in wet clutches arises from the viscous shearing of lubricants in the narrow gaps between clutch plates, and it represents a significant source of power loss in automotive and industrial ...

The functional lifetime of a wet clutch can be characterized using wear characteristics such as velocity dependence of the coefficient of friction (COF) and friction curves. Current market trends ...

In this webinar, we cover the motivation and method of a bench-top screening test for the friction characteristics of wet clutch materials and automatic transmission fluids (ATFs). A critical ...

The eight speed twin-clutch transmission Hyundai has spent years perfecting has bolted from the barn inside the Veloster N. Officially named the N eight-speed wet dual-clutch, or N DCT, the gearbox ...

The life of the clutch, being an integral component of the transmission, directly impacts the gearbox's stability. A finite element model and a thermodynamic numerical method of a multi-disc clutch ...

BorgWarner United Transmission Systems (BWUTS), a joint venture between the US-based supplier and 12 Chinese automakers in Dalian, will supply 'DualTronic' (twin clutch) control modules and clutch ...
