Analytical Investigation on the Damping Performance of Atorque Converter in an Automotive Driveline Model
Johannes Kepler University, Technical Mechanics Department, Linz, Austria
Torque converters are avital part of automatic transmission vehicles. In this paper the influence of a torque converter on the lowest mode of driveline vibrations (shuffle mode) is investigated. The automotive driveline is modelled by lumped parameter models, in which a steady-state torque converter model is inserted between the engine and the gearbox. A detailed mathematical model of a two-degree of freedom and a three-degree of freedom dynamic systemis given. The resulting nonlinear differential equations are linearized to obtain system transfer functions and to study damping characteristics of the torque converter.Additionally, a dynamic system model with nonlinear equations is developed in MATLAB/Simulink to verify the linearized system. The simulations show that the high frequency vibrations from the engine side are damped due to the torque converter and the linearized model predicts the system response accurately.
