Performance Comparison and Analysis of Stamping/Welding and Foundry Hydrodynamic Torque Converters

To better understand the different performances between the stamping/welding and foundry hydrodynamic torque converters and their contributing causes,two types of hydraulic torque converters are designed on the basis of the same cascade angle and round loop.The internal and external flow characteristics and performances can be figured out by using CFD method to simulate the internal flow field of the hydrodynamic torque converter.The performance comparison between the welding and foundry hydrodynamic torque converters is also done by the calculation and in-depth analysis of the simulation results.
