Abstract
Wet clutches operating under low velocity and high load are studied with the aim of obtaining reliable models for the torque transfer during boundary lubrication conditions. A friction model which takes temperature, speed and nominal pressure into account is developed and used with temperature calculations to be able to simulate behavior of a wet clutch working in boundary lubrication regime. Predicted torque and temperatures from the model agree well with experimental data. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
