This study aims at developing a novel method for condition monitoring technique for detection and classification of developing faults and increase the working life of continuous variable transmission (CVT) using Daubechies Wavelet 06 (DB-06). The vibration data is collected for 4 different types of faults and healthy condition. Using a magnetic accelerometer and signal analyser, vibration data is collected from the system in the time-domain which is then used as input for a MATLAB code producing the plot of the frequency-domain signal. Maximum frequency is determined to diagnose the faults which are induced over three different belts. Collected data for large scale automotive system (CVT) is used to train the network and then it is tested based on random data points. Faults were classified using ANN with a classification rate of 90.8 %.

A study on the optimal matching of centrifugal pumps and large-scale wind turbines is reported. The study includes mathematical modelling of the performance of high-capacity centrifugal pumps when matched with efficient high-speed low-solidity wind turbines. The dependence of the performance of wind pumps on the dimensionless parameter v/√( gh), termed the wind pump’s Froude number, was fully analysed. Similar to earlier reported results on wind-powered piston pumps, analysis is showing that the wind pump’s Froude number is the dominant independent dimensionless parameter that fully defines the system’s performance. Operation with continuous variable transmission was analysed and shown to optimize the wind pump’s performance, particularly at medium and low wind speeds. The optimum relation between the required gearbox transmission ratio and Froude number of a wind-powered centrifugal pump was analytically established for three different pumps. In addition to continuous variable transmission operation, the analysis helps in optimally sizing constant transmission ratio systems.

Given the transmission efficiency fluctuation and response lag problem of hydromechanical continuous variable transmission combined with the complex and variable working environment of a tractor, an integrated control strategy of engine throttle compensation–hydromechanical continuous variable transmission speed regulation is adopted for dual-flow transmission control. On the basis of the estimation of working resistance, a fuzzy algorithm is used to design the throttle compensation law. Considering the maximum driving power of a tractor as the target of variable speed control, an hydromechanical continuous variable transmission efficiency model is established, and the control law of an hydromechanical continuous variable transmission displacement ratio with the maximum driving power of the tractor under any working condition is determined. On the basis of the wavelet neural network proportional–integral–derivative algorithm, the control law of the hydromechanical continuous variable transmission speed regulation is designed, and the parameters of proportional–integral–derivative control are corrected in real time during the control process. Based on MATLAB/Simulink modelling and simulation and the real vehicle verification test, results showed that the influence of hydromechanical continuous variable transmission efficiency fluctuation on the driving power of the entire vehicle, the response lag of the pump-controlled motor system, and the effect of the leakage on the variable speed control and the fluctuation of the working resistance are solved by studying the hydromechanical continuous variable transmission variable speed transmission control strategy. This strategy improves the stability of the tractor speed and ensured the quality of the work, thereby improving the ability of the tractor to adapt to complex working environments.

Abstract Many design parameters affect the performance of continuous variable transmissions. This paper presents the optimization of a continuous variable transmission by using the simulated annealing algorithm. The Bessel method of curve fitting and the tensor product method of surface fitting were used to facilitate the discrete fuel consumption, emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and HC compound of experimental engine data. A compromise method was used to analyze the multi-objective functions. The values for design variables are recommended for further development.

Vehicular tailpipe emissions have one of the largest impacts on urban air quality. One way to reduce these hazardous emissions is to reduce the amount of fuel consumed by on-road vehicles. In this research, we consider both vehicle design and driver behavior as crucial elements in evaluating the environmental impact of two-wheel vehicles. Any redesign of vehicle specifications, results in different driving patterns that need to be re-evaluated in a realistic environment with traffic simulation. Therefore we developed traffic simulations with mixed fleets to model scooter/driver behaviors to reflect urban driving scenarios. Based on the results, a 31-variable continuous variable transmission (CVT) design and a 14-parameter cellular automata traffic model are integrated. Simultaneous redesign of CVT with traffic simulation can reduce the fuel consumption by 16.2% in our case study. This promising outcome demonstrates the need for multi-discipline integration of real-world traffic impact assessments and improvements.

This paper introduces modeling of a gearless hydraulic transmission system that provides an infinite speed ratio like continuous variable transmission (CVT). The transmission system is modeled in various operating conditions such as all-electric and gasoline configurations. The results demonstrate the high performance operation of the transmission system.
