  • Investigations on the Fluid Coupling of Gearless Two Wheeler
    International Journal of Scientific Engineering and Applied Science (IJSEAS) - Volume-1, Issue-7,October 2015 ISSN: 2395-3470 www.ijseas.com INVESTIGATIONS ON THE FLUID COUPLING OF GEARLESS TWO WHEELER 1 P SYEDP DANISH MEHDI,ASST.PROF,VIF COLLEGE OF ENGG. AND TECH. 2 P DR.MOHD.MOINODDIN,P ASSOC.PROF.,MJCET 3 P DR.SYEDP NAWAZISH MEHDI,PROFESSOR,MJCET ABSTRACT There is an increased attention towards the development of Gear-less two-wheeler automobiles [scooters] which have automatic-transmission systems, using centrifugal-clutch systems. These clutch systems have high wear and tear and hence the present research work is taken up to replace the said clutch system with a fluid coupling which may be more effective in wear-free transmission and it will provide a smooth & controlled acceleration with effective damping of shocks, load fluctuations and torsional vibrations. The attention is therefore laid on developing a highly-efficient fluid coupling. This fluid coupling would capture the mechanical power from the main source, namely the I.C. engine and then transmits it to the rear wheels via an automatic gear box. The fluid coupling has an advantage over the mechanical coupling in the following areas. Effective dampening of shocks, load fluctuations and torsional vibrations. Smooth and controlled acceleration without jerks in transmission of the vehicle. Wear-free power transmission because of absence of mechanical connection [no metal-to-metal contact] between the input and output elements. But as the Conventional-fluid couplings have relatively low transmission efficiency, the challenge lies in developing an efficient modified fluid coupling which would transfer the mechanical power with minimum transmission losses in the case of Two-Wheeler automobiles especially the Gear-less Scooters.

  • John Hasnas, Hayek, the Common Law, and Fluid Drive
    HAYEK, THE COMMON LAW, AND FLUID DRIVE John Hasnas* Introduction In the first volume of Law, Legislation and Liberty, Friedrich Hayek distin- guishes two types of law: the law that is consciously created through the political process, which he calls the law of legislation,1 and the unplanned law that evolves out of the settlement of interpersonal disputes, which he calls the law of liberty.2 In drawing this distinction, Hayek paints a portrait of the law of liberty that is simul- taneously brilliant and inspiring, and utterly confused. How can it possibly be both? The purpose of this essay is to answer this question and to resolve Hayek’s confusion. To do so, I intend to employ an extended analogy between law and automobiles. Accordingly, I would like you to consider the following account of how I gained a modicum of automotive wisdom. Having been born in the latter half of the twentieth century, I learned to drive in a world in which automobiles contained either automatic or manual trans- missions. In my world view, one drove a car either by putting the car in drive and stepping on the accelerator or by pressing on the clutch and employing the gearshift lever to manually change gear ratios at the appropriate times. To me, every car had to be classified as either an automatic or a stick. When I was a graduate student, I shared an apartment with a colleague who was far more learned in automotive lore than I. One year, he returned from spring break driving a 1947 Dodge.

  • Unit-Iii Transmission System
    UNIT-III TRANSMISSION SYSTEM TRANSMISSION SYSTEM Chief function of the device is to receive power at one torque and angular velocity and to deliver it at another torque and the corresponding angular velocity. LAYOUT OF AUTOMOBILE POWER TRANSMISSION SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS OF TRANSMISSION SYSTEM 1. To provide for disconnecting the engine from the driving wheels. 2. When the engine is running, to enable the connection to the driving wheels to be made smoothly and without shock. 3. To enable the leverage between the engine and driving wheels to be varied. 4. It must reduce the drive-line speed from that of the engine to that of the driving wheels in a ratio of somewhere between about 3:1 and 10:1 or more, according to the relative size of engine and weight of vehicle. 5. Turn the drive, if necessary, through 90° or perhaps otherwise re-align it. 6. Enable the driving wheels to rotate at different speeds. 7. Provide for relative movement between the engine and driving wheels. CLUTCH The clutch is housed between the engine and transmission where it provides a mechanical coupling between the engine's flywheel and the transmission input shaft. The clutch is operated by a linkage that extends from the passenger compartment to the clutch housing. The purpose of the clutch is to disconnect the engine from the driven wheels when a vehicle is changing gears or being started from rest. Disengaging the clutch separates the flywheel, the clutch plate and the pressure plate from each other. The flywheel is bolted to the end of the crankshaft and rotates with it.

There you can learn about our recent prize, read about the people of Blackstone, peruse our FAQs, log on to view your reports online, buy discounted analyses, and more! Transmission Translation by Kristin Huff and Jim Stark Most of us drive cars and trucks with transmissions in them, but few of us really know much about them. If you’re interested, read on! If not, hey, isn’t it time to go change your oil and send a sample to Blackstone? A Little History Lesson Direct drives for cars and trucks disappeared with steam engines and chains. The first transmissions were two-speed manuals, linked to the engine with pedals. Just before WWII, Chrysler introduced the “fluid drive,” which was a semi-automatic transmission that still used a clutch pedal. You could start driving without using the clutch, but shifting between low and high gears required some pedal action. Semi-automatic and, later, automatic transmissions, were a big hit and fed the growing American love affair with cars. To improve fuel economy, overdrives were added after WWII. Simply put, an overdrive is a gear arrangement that allows more revolutions on the shaft going to the wheels than on the crankshaft in the engine. Overdrives improved fuel efficiency and reduced engine wear. Three-speed transmissions were developed after two-speeds, and they had the longest run historically. Next came four-speeds, then five-speeds and now, six-speeds. The three-speeds worked well and little has been gained in efficiency (in our opinion) with the following generations of weightier transmissions.
