What is the difference between wet dual-clutch and dual-clutch?
1 Answers
The differences between wet dual-clutch and dual-clutch are as follows: 1. Different configurations: Ordinary AT transmissions arrange the gears sequentially on adjacent planetary gears. When receiving the shift command from the ECU, the shift valve controls the separation and engagement of different gears to achieve the function of automatic shifting. The working method of a dual-clutch transmission is obviously more advanced. 2. Different disadvantages: The clutch plates of a dual-clutch are directly exposed to the air, with gear meshing directly transmitting power. The advantage of this configuration is high transmission efficiency. However, the disadvantage is also obvious—it is prone to overheating. If the clutch operates for a long time at low speeds and in a semi-engaged state, its service life will be significantly reduced.
