Automotive Gear System: Manual Transmission – Computer Interface

The apparatus is for studying the acceleration of an automotive gear system as well as gear system efficiency under different gear ratios and speeds.

The system uses a manual automotive gear. The input shaft is driven a motor dynamometer via a belt and pulleys. Speed is controlled by an inverter. The output shaft is attached to a water brake absorber dynamometer. The gear output shaft is extended for a study of inertia of a mass and equivalent inertia of the gear system. The dynamometer requires outside water supply.

The unit is on steel frame with adjustable footings.

Instruction manual is also included.

TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
  • Input power, output power and efficiency.
  • Effect of speed and load on efficiency.
  • Equivalent inertia of the gear.
