Thermal Analysis and Test Research of the Magnetic Powder Clutch for Vehicles
Authors: , ,
Abstract: The magnetic powder clutch designed for vehicles was taken as the research object to analyze its working ability. The heat source intensity and thermal parameters of the magnetic powder clutch were determined based on thermal analysis theory and the operating state analysis of the magnetic powder clutch under three typical stable conditions. Then the temperature finite element model was established and the temperature distribution and change were analyzed. The feasibility and the working reliability of the designed magnetic powder clutch were evaluated by using the simulation results, which provided evidence for the later research. Finally, the test prototype and test bench of the magnetic powder clutch for vehicle was developed. The test results showed that the temperature field analysis model of magnetic powder clutch established in this paper was accurate and the designed magnetic powder clutch satisfied the requirement for working.
