Abstract
A visualization of the flow field around a Lock-Up Clutch inside an automotive torque converter was attempted by using the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique. Consequently, it turned out that the flow velocity distribution of the Lock-Up Piston surface was measurable. From these measurement results, a key for improving the operation response of a Lock-Up Clutch can be acquired.
