Course Summary:

Torque, Power, and Transmission 30:33 minutes

Trace the path of mechanical power from pistons to the engine crankshaft, then through the flywheel and clutch assembly to the transmission gearbox. Focus on the relationships between torque, rotational speed, and power, discovering the reason that transmissions require multiple gear ratios.

The Drivetrain 34:36 minutes

Follow the transfer of automotive power from the gearbox through the driveshaft to the differential and drive-wheels. Study working models of the universal joint and differential. Also explore the design of front-wheel drive, and peer inside an automatic transmission to expose the miracle of its smooth operation.

Learning Objective:

By the end of this course the student will be able to trace the path of mechanical power from pistons to the engine crankshaft, then through the flywheel and clutch assembly to the transmission gearbox. The student will also be able to follow the transfer of automotive power from the gearbox through the driveshaft to the differential and drive-wheels.
