What is the difference between wet clutch and dry clutch?
1 Answers
Here are the main differences between wet clutch and dry clutch: 1. The connection medium between the driving plate and the driven plate of the clutch is different: dry clutch relies on air, while wet clutch relies on oil. 2. Different cooling methods: dry clutch mainly relies on air cooling, and its cooling performance is not as good as that of wet clutch, so dry clutch is prone to damage and is not as durable; wet clutch absorbs heat through the transmission oil that soaks the clutch plates. 3. Different advantages: the main advantages of dry clutch are simple structure, low cost, and lower maintenance and repair costs, making it more economical and practical; the advantages of wet clutch are long service life and generally no failure, unless the operating procedures are violated or the clutch is often operated in a semi-clutch state.
