    Typical RPM and Torques for an Automatic Transmission

    I don't really understand your question. Input rpm and torque values are engine output torque and engine values. Torque convertor output torque values are dependent on the characteristics of the TQ. Zero torque at zero engine rpm and max torque at whatever rpm the convertor locks up. I should...

    Torque converter model for simulation

    I used an exponential buildup function for the ?three? gears. I used the exponential to model the output torque of the converter. Basically, you need to decide how much torque is required to move the vehicle and set the paramenters of the exponential so that this torque is produced at around...
