Drive train I
The drive train’s selection of a real vehicle is only possible on this sheet and is also valid for the sheet drive train II: You can select one drive train from the drop-down list. This one is characterized by the following characteristics:
| drive train type | Here you can select between ‘front wheel drive/manual’, ‘front wheel drive/automatic’; ‘rear wheel drive/manual’, ‘rear wheel drive/automatic’, ‘all wheel drive/manual’, and ‘all wheel drive/automatic’. |
| no. of tyres | Here the number of wheels is indicated, for passenger cars generally 4, for trucks sometimes more (attention: twin tyres has to be considered here). |
| drive train efficency map no. | Each drive train has an efficiency map which is defined by the number of train map. The accompanying file fzstr'x'.data' has to be modified with an editor, which is offered by the midnight-commander. |
| MoI pump | inertia moment of the pump side of a hydrodynamic converter with an automatic transmission in [kgm²] |
| MoI turbine | inertia moment of the turbine side of a hydrodynamic converter with an automatic transmission in [kgm²] |
| MoI clutch | inertia moment of the clutch with a manual transmission in in [kgm²] |
| MoI cardan shaft | inertia moment of the cardan shaft in [kgm²] |
| MoI differential | inertia moment of the differential in [kgm²] |
| MoI half shaft | inertia moment of the half shaft (=drive shaft) in [kgm²] |
| mass of drive train | weight of the entire drive train in [kg] |
| total gear changing time | required time of the entire shift process with an automatic transmission in [s] |
