What is the Difference Between Wet and Dry Dual-Clutch Transmissions?
1 Answers
The differences between wet and dry dual-clutch transmissions: 1. Different connection media: Wet dual-clutch primarily relies on oil; dry dual-clutch mainly relies on air. 2. Different cooling methods: Wet dual-clutch has a dedicated cooling system; dry dual-clutch mainly relies on air cooling. 3. Different transmission installation methods: The clutch of a wet dual-clutch transmission is installed in a sealed oil chamber filled with hydraulic oil. Since the clutch plates are immersed in oil, the oil provides a certain cooling effect, resulting in more stable performance during use. Dry dual-clutch transmissions do not have a hydraulic system; torque is transmitted through the friction plates of the driven disc.
