Is the transmission of Zhonghua V7 a wet dual-clutch or dry dual-clutch?
1 Answers
Zhonghua V7 transmission is a wet dual-clutch. The following are the differences between wet and dry types: Different intermediate medium: The intermediate medium of dry transmission is air; the intermediate medium of wet transmission is oil. Different response speeds: Dry transmission transmits directly through metal plate contact; wet transmission requires oil as an intermediary, from the speed increase of the driving plate to the centrifugal force increase of the oil, and then to the speed increase of the driven plate. The structure of the wet clutch is more complex, and the complex structure means higher energy loss, so the transmission efficiency of the wet dual-clutch transmission is lower, occupying more engine power, and under other unchanged factors, the fuel consumption will be higher.
