Which device controls the speed of the turbine shaft?
The device which control the speed of Turbine is Governor. The Governing system sense the speed of shaft & regulate the Fuel/ Motive fluid flow to the Turbine to maintain the set shaft speed.
Speed is the ratio of the distance an object moves to?
speed is the ratio of the distance an object moves per time unit (seconds,minutes hours)
What measuring tools do mechanics use?
Tape measures Calipers Tachometer (measures the rotation speed of a shaft or disk, as in a motor or other machine
How does a hydraulic flow divider work?
A rotary flow divider is essentially two hydraulic gear motors of equal displacement that are mechanically linked (the output shafts are coupled together). When fed from a single line, they must both turn at the same speed because they are linked and becasue they have equal displacement they therefore use the same amount of oil, hence evenly dividing the input oul between the two motors.
Why might compound gear train be better than two gears alone?
Because the speed is decreased less from an equal gear ratio.
How do you find speed ratio?
Distance input --------------- = Speed Ratio Distance output The distance input divided by the distance output equals the Speed Ratio.
How a transmission works?
input shaft is linked to engine, output shaft is linked to wheels. clutch plates (friction based) allow it to apply different gear ratio's, which allows you to build speed quicker
What does a dodge intrepid input and output sensor do?
The input sensor reads the speed of the transmission input shaft.The output sensor reads the speed of the transmission output shaft.The transmission computer uses these sensors to help time the shifts, and to run the speedometer.The input sensor reads the speed of the transmission input shaft.The output sensor reads the speed of the transmission output shaft.The transmission computer uses these sensors to help time the shifts, and to run the speedometer.
What is an overdrive gear?
A gear which causes the transmission output shaft to rotate at a higher speed than the transmission input shaft.
When does engine speed match drives-haft speed?
When the transmission is operating at a 1:1 ratio, also known as direct drive. In most overdrive transmissions, there isn't a gear which hits at exactly a 1:1 ratio. But if you have an older vehicle with a direct drive transmission (like most of the older three speed automatics and four speed manuals are), then your highest gear is likely a 1:1 ratio. What that means is that, for each rotation of the transmission's input shaft, there is one rotation of the output shaft, as opposed to overdrive, where the output shaft spins faster than the input shaft. Of course, when the vehicle is shut off and not in motion, the engine speed and driveshaft speed are matching then, as well.
How does a manual transmission in a car work?
There are two shafts which run through the gearbox, the input shaft and the output shaft, and the two are connect by pairs of gearwheels, one for every 'gear' of the car. They are paired together: Gear 1 will have a small wheel on the input shaft and a large wheel on the output shaft, meaning less speed and more turning force. Gear 5 will have a large wheel on the input shaft and a small wheel on the output shaft, to ensure a high speed. Moving the gear stick to select a gear pulls a 'synchromesh' into place. This locks the input shaft a gear on the input shaft, allowing the movement to be transferred to the output shaft via that particular 'gear'. In the Neutral setting, the synchromeshes are all disengaged. In Reverse gear, there are three wheels involved in the transmission, instead of two.
What is a main shaft in a manual transmission?
Most 3 speed manual transmissions without overdrive have 2 shafts, a mainshaft and a counter shaft or ( jackshaft). The main shaft is the shaft that the drive shaft is coupled to by a universal joint at the output of the transmission. When the transmission is in 3rd gear the output of the transmission is the same RPMs as the engine or the input of the transmission. So in 3rd gear or 4th gear in a 4 speed the mainshaft becomes as one from the input from the clutch to the output to the driveshaft
What do input and output speed sensors do?
They read the speed of the input and output components of the transmission.
What causes code p0720?
Trouble code P0720 means: A/T Output Shaft Speed Sensor Insufficient Input
What is the purpose of an output speed sensor?
It reads the speed of the output shaft.
What is the Speed ratio formula?
Number of Driven Gear Teeth (Output)/Number of Driver Gear Teeth (Input)
Where are the input and output vehicle speed sensors on a 1989 dodge spirit with the 2.5 liter automatic?
No input sensor. The vehicle speed sensor is located in the top of the housing that the right axle shaft goes into.
