Characteristic Analysis for the Internal Flow Field of CVT Torque Converter Based on FLUENT

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to the issue of CVT torque converter internal flow field such as the complexity and not easy to calculate, the channel model of torque converter is established by UG, the grid of channel model is generated by GAMBIT, the internal flow field of torque converter is simulated based on FLUENT while the pressure and velocity distribution of flow field are calculated under three different conditions. The results show that analyzing the flow field of torque converter by FLUENT has certain guiding significance for the design and optimization of torque converter.
