  • WTF?

  • How is the fluid prevented from leaking out of the system between the two wheels?

  • Jesus is coming soon! repent and prepare for the lord

  • Comment removed

  • @bass109 my dad and family just died. when was he coming again? I guess they were not good enough people to see this.

  • @bass109  Should I look busy?

  • I think that the gain you have here is no wear at all, not 100% efficiency

  • There's obviously going to be eventual wear as the blades are still experiencing some reciprocal force, but it's going to be greatly alleviated because of the elasticity of the fluid.

  • i dont believe the effectivity and synchronousity can reach 100%.. nothing can reach 100% when talking about phsyics, there will be always some little loss...

  • There are losses in the bearings and through the tube that controls the internal fill level. There are also heat losses. The oil in the fluid coupling will get very hot. A heat exchanger is required to remove that heat. The efficiency and generated heat is a function of how much the coupling slips.

  • so dont tell me that it has got 100% efficiency, when some of the energy is lost and the coupling slips (even if very slowly)...

    thats not damn perpetuum mobile

  • I don't know where you got the idea that it was suppose to be 100% efficient. The video said that the slip can reach 100%. That means the output speed is zero while the input is still running. It won't run there for long. 100% slip would cause the temperature of the fluid to sky rocket in a very short time.

  • yeah, i have seen it once again, that was a misunderstanding... sorry for that.

  • he said the SLIP can reach 100% !

  • @marek0086 exactly. You can have 100% slip for short time when the driven is blocked. The coupling is protecting the drive line.

  • Great Education.....I don't see where it could bend

  • Incredible, No slip. But how is it connected? It obviously has to be connected so it wont bend right...DUH?

    Thanks for putting it up...learned a lot..videos always beat paragraphs..

    Btw: This is what all automatic trannies use right?

  • Hello HYPHYDUM408,

    depending on the fluid coupling type the coupling shafts are i.e. connected to the motor and gearbox simply by flexible connecting couplings.

    Further there is a small slip between the pump wheel and turbine wheel - otherwiese there wouldn't be a powertransmission between primary and secondary wheel.

    By the way, on the Voith Turbo website you can order a CD-ROM with much more information and animations on fill-controlled fluid couplings.

  • "Torque converter" = "fluid coupling"
