POWER AND PROPULSION
Learning Objectives By participating in this On Demand Course, you will be able to: • Discuss both practical and technical aspects of smoothing clutch operation by incorporating cushion and torsional dampers • Compare different types of transmission synchronizers, automatic transmission torque converters, hydraulic clutch operation and epicyclic gear trains • Describe the interaction of gear ratios and vehicle performance as related to engine horsepower and torque curves • Explain phasing and mounting of propeller shafts as related to torsional excitation and secondary couple loads • Describe different types of differentials • Compare common misconceptions of limited slip devices to their actual performance • Recognize four-wheel drive systems and the need for an inter- axle differential • Appraise electronic control of torque through braking and clutching devices • Evaluate the total drivetrain package as a system Who Should Attend This course has been developed for engineers working with passenger car, sport utility, truck, bus, industrial, and off-highway vehicles who have had minimal prior experience with the total drivetrain. An engineering undergraduate degree in any discipline would be beneficial.
available for many years and is now fully matured as a production ready technology, it is often not fully understood. This web seminar presents a focused view of CVT technology in all its forms and implementations. The aim of this course is to provide a more complete understanding of all the technologies that are considered continuously variable and to order them in terms of their automotive applicability. Time will be spent discussing appli- cation strategies, control and communication requirements with the rest of the powertrain, durability and lubricant requirements. This eight-hour web seminar provides a thorough survey of all technologies that are considered applicable to automotive powertrains. These technologies will be reviewed within the contexts of both the other CVT technologies and suitability. Finally, the requirements of the device will be discussed and contrasted to appropriateness for use in a modern automotive application. Learning Objectives By connecting with this web seminar, you will be able to: • Recognize all technologies classified as continuously variable • Explain the fundamentals of friction and lubrication applied to mechanical power transmission • Discuss the meaning and use of the functional properties of current lubricant technology • Represent the concept of friction-required and friction-not- required as applied to mechanical power transmission • Summarize the function and operation of all major CVT technologies • List the requirements of CVT and Traction specific lubricants Who Should Attend Designed as an introduction, this course is intended for anyone who is not familiar with the function, requirements, and appli- cation of continuously variable transmission technology to modern passenger vehicle transmission systems. The material covered in this seminar is targeted at a number of design and engineering disciplines including, but not limited to: • Design engineers and engineering managers • Vehicle powertrain and driveline designers • Component suppliers • Powertrain and driveline test and development engineers • Design services managers Prerequisites The attendee must have a working knowledge of torque converters, epicyclic geartrains, multi-plate clutches (their function and actuation technologies) and a general understanding of lubrication technology prior to attending this course.
