ENGINE UNIT


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. A dual-mass flywheel is used to absorb irregular rotations during the engine's combustion process, smoothly transmitting power to the manual transaxle.

    2. The 2 isolated masses are connected by way of a spring/damping system. A clutch disc without a torsional vibration damper between the secondary mass and the transaxle assumes the function of disconnecting and connecting. While the flywheel mass which is connected to the engine absorbs the irregularities of the engine, the speed of the mass which is connected to the transaxle does not change as long as the engine speed remains the same. This process of isolation prevents transaxle chatter in the critical engine speed ranges.

    3. The graphic on the left shows the irregular rotation of the engine which is applied to the dual-mass flywheel. The graphic on the right shows the irregular rotation which is transmitted to the transaxle. As the 2 graphics show, the irregular rotation is significantly reduced by the dual-mass flywheel.
