Modeling the Work of a Torque Converter during the Getaway Process of a Vehicle

Abstract:

The paper aims at issuing of a virtual simulation model that would be able to assess the actual working modes of a torque converter, both hydraulically and mechanically. To estimating the dynamic behavior we used the assessing equations of the converter’s performance coefficients. The rotational inertial phenomena due to the transient regimes during the getaway phase are also considered. The modeling process assumed the use of the pre-defined structures of the Simulink-Matlab and Simscape-Matlab modules. The virtual model of the torque converter was fed with the experimentally determined, performance parameters as input. The input also consisted of the inertia moments of the converter’s components. Eventually, by interrogating the simulation model, we’ve got and plotted the time histories of the converter’s impeller and turbine angular velocities during the vehicle’s getaway process.
