Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of transmission efficiency technology, specifically relating to a method and system for evaluating transmission efficiency. Background Technology

[0002] Transmission efficiency is an important indicator of transmission performance. Currently, OEMs have high requirements for transmission efficiency in order to achieve energy conservation, emission reduction, and lower operating costs.

[0003] However, currently, the only method for evaluating transmission efficiency is the comprehensive transmission efficiency specified in the national standard. Although OEMs test the transmission efficiency of transmissions at different speeds and torques, they only obtain efficiency data; there is no comparative method, let alone a way to compare the efficiency of transmissions from different manufacturers in the same torque range. Furthermore, there is no corresponding relationship between output speed, transmission efficiency, and gear position. Different gears at the same speed have different transmission efficiencies, and these differences in transmission efficiency determine different energy consumption at the same vehicle speed. Existing methods for evaluating transmission efficiency generally test at the input speed, making a direct and accurate evaluation impossible. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method and system for evaluating the transmission efficiency of a transmission, which can accurately and intuitively evaluate the transmission efficiency of a transmission, reduce the fuel consumption of shifting gears, and also provide the efficiency levels of different transmissions.

[0010] S4: Repeat steps S1-S3 to obtain the transmission efficiency of different models of transmissions with the same torque.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the input rotational speed is 900-1600 rpm.

[0012] Further, the transmission efficiency in step S1 is 95.12%-99.50%.

[0013] Further, the input rotation speed in step S2 is 900-1600 / rpm.

[0014] Further, the output rotation speed in step S2 is 150-2162 / rpm.

[0015] Further, the speed ratio in step S2 is the ratio of the transmission input and output rotation speed, which is determined by the transmission gear transmission design parameters of each gear.

[0016] Further, in step S3, the horizontal coordinate in the rectangular coordinate system is the output rotation speed, and the vertical coordinate is the input rotation speed.
