Modelling Internal Leakage in the Automatic Transmission Electro-Hydraulic Controller, Taking into Account Operating Conditions

The basic malfunction of automatic transmissions (ATs) is oil flow through hydraulic precision pair clearances called an “internal leakage”, leading to difficulties in controlling the AT. There are no sufficiently accurate methods for assessing the impact of “internal leakage” on the AT technical co...

description The basic malfunction of automatic transmissions (ATs) is oil flow through hydraulic precision pair clearances called an “internal leakage”, leading to difficulties in controlling the AT. There are no sufficiently accurate methods for assessing the impact of “internal leakage” on the AT technical condition in the course of operation. A proprietary hydraulic precision pair internal leak flow model has been proposed in the paper. The novelty of the model is applying electro-hydraulic controller precision pair clearance values as data that was determined through measurements involving an actual object with a specific AT operation period. The authors conduct variant tests of the model to determine the total AT hydraulic system controller leakage. Reduced oil viscosity (approx. 20%) results in internal leakage increasing by 25%. Significant wear of the controller’s precision pair and increased oil temperature (above 80 °C) lead to internal leakage increasing by more than 50% and oil pressure decreasing below the permissible value.
