    Abstract

    GROISS, F. H.  and  PRETORIUS, L.. Design and analysis of  Hydrodynamic torque converters. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1992, vol.8, pp.17-24. ISSN 2309-8988.

    The one-dimensional torque converter analysis program as developed by Lamprecht [5] has been adapted and applied to a torque converter with known characteristic and geometry. The model was further used as the primary design tool to develop five torque converter elements, all of which were tested on a test bench to determine the performance characteristic thereof The experimental results are compared with the analytical results.
