A Familiarization of Drivetrain Components
EDU Trainings s.r.o.
Popis kurzu
An efficient, durable, and quiet running drivetrain is as essential to customer satisfaction as styling and interior creature comforts. This seven-module, on-demand course is designed to expose you to various methods used to accomplish this goal and will help you to visualize individual components and their functions within the entire drivetrain system, without reference to complicated equations. Instructor Joseph Palazzolo provides an introduction to the terms, functions, nomenclature, operating characteristics, and effect on vehicle performance for each of the drivetrain components, including the clutch, torque converter, manual and automatic transmissions, driveshaft, axle, wheel ends, and brakes.
Insights into the structure and function of each component, vehicle performance, and related noise, vibration, and harshness issues are provided. You’ll also be equipped to evaluate the space requirements, mounting needs, and clearances required.
Objectives
By participating in this on-demand course, you’ll 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
