Dear friends, I learned the working of automatic transmission from a 2D drawing. It is in fact more easy to understand with a 2D model than a 3D. That's why we thought of releasing a 2D version of the automatic transmission. Different pieces of this video were lying ready in our system for the last 6 months. Finally I got some time last week to do the video editing work and convert them in to a single video. Please help us recruit one video editing professional. www.patreon.com/LearnEngineering

I would not be so bold as to say that it is "in fact" easier to learn one way or another, when addressing an entire population of individuals. Everyone has different preferences for the information they take in, and the senses they use most or best when processing that information. Each individual learns differently, where one may find a topic such as this easier to understand with a 2D rendering, another may be better at understanding when visually watching how each component interacts in the system in 3D, while some others may even learn best from simply listening and visualizing, with only minimal processing of the actual visual presentation. It is for this reason that it was wise for you to have posted both a 3D, and a 2D conceptualization, both including descriptive audio to accompany the animations. But that does not mean that your personal preference for learning such concepts is, as a matter-of-fact, the easiest for everyone. Just my two cents.

Good visualization and easy to follow explanations, but you sort of skimmed past the torque converter. I happen to like torque converters so I thought I'd fill you in. A torque converter can convert rotational speed into torque; it's sort of like a hydraulic intermediate CVT without overdrive. In addition, most automatics nowadays have a lock-up feature which mechanically couples the input and output to mitigate the fuel efficiency issue. In those transmissions it effectively becomes a large flywheel when it isn't needed. You can tell the difference when driving a car with torque converter lock-up. At high speeds the fuel efficiency is significantly improved over a traditional torque converter and is comparable to a manual transmission. When starting from a standstill you still have the torque boost. The only remaining flaw is the rotating mass of the torque converter, but that's a relatively minor thing. It would be great if you could show how a torque converter works internally. In my opinion it's a seriously underrated engineering gem.

[@andycdwll]

Manual transmission: Clutch disconnects shaft from motor, you apply desired gear, clutch reengages the shaft, car moves. Automatic transmission: Many clutches make many gears Turn or NOT turn thus producing different gear ratios, thus producing various torque and speed. Think of it as a mechanic numbers counter. You must turn the right most wheel (1) over one full time to next-right wheel (2) to turn to 1. Then next revolution of (1) puts (2) to 2, and so on and so on. Then the multiple clutches come in and my head is about to explode from not being able to completely wrap my head around this principle, and I am going to eat play doh in my pillow fort now untill I find the courage to try to understand this again in a couple of months.

@@shyamalim3797 The computer decides based on input / output speed of the shafts, RPM of the engine, speed of the wheels, etc. Its programmed to engage / disengaged specific clutches at specific moments depending on what you're asking of the car. For example, let's say you're cruising in 5th and suddenly start climbing a steep hill. The wheel rotation will reduce because the engine doesn't have enough torque to climb the hill in 5th, the computer will then engage / disengaged the proper clutches to go into 4th. You will feel it a little but since the torque converter uses fluids, it softens the hit of changing ratio quickly while applying power.

how do the clutches move on their own

[@afro1samuri]

they dont. pistons apply them with the help of hydraulic fluid.

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

Originally you would have a hydraulic pump spun off the fly wheel and always applying pressure with a second pump off the drive shaft and a valve controlled by the throttle to relieve pressure to determine when it shifts. Now the pump is integrated into the torque converter and there are several computer controlled valves. The exact implementation varies greatly by manufactuerer. I believe ZF, Ford, GM, and Mercedes hold a great deal of patents that make it very difficult to make a good control system for other companies, which is partially why most are moving to CVTs.

[@brykkammo3887]

The answer you're looking for is simply within the PCM. The transmission simply makes the change, but the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is what tells it when and what to shift to.

[@Zerububble]

At the simplest... low engine loading, high rpm, with the throttle depressed - go up a gear.

[@Bszewski]

@@brykkammo3887 but how they did that in an early mechanical manner?

[@munsey9114]

@@Bszewski 3 words: hydraulic load detection Basically (from what little I even manage to understand) There's a hydraulic pump somewhere around the torque converter, and it builds pressure. I'm pretty sure that based on how fast the engine spins the converter it increases or decreases pressure. Lower pressure means lower speed (or a higher load) and so, it will close a spring loaded valve and stop pressure from flowing to the clutch packs that apply higher gears, in favor of applying a lower gear. And visa versa from high speed (lower load) That's part of the reason why many could call an automatic stupid. For example. Youre driving up a hill, and have to increase rpm to maintain your speed up said hill. It will shift up because rpm increased ( and so hydraulic pressure increased) and it opens the high pressure valves to got to higher gear. Making it harder to go up the hill... Of course when you slow rpm, decrease pressure and close high pressure valve. It will shift back down. But Yea. Short and sweet is rpm go up. Hydraulic pump pumps more pressure. Pressure opens spring loaded valve. Spring loaded valve sends pressure to corresponding clutch set, and you shift

[@munsey9114]

Wow. Jesus Christ me. That was wrong. Alright. There's a lot more parts than that. I'm very sorry. I just spent a month in an actual transmission college class, (that's why I was here was to try and study), and past me was forgetting more than just a few steps. The pump does supply pressure, however, it does not determine which clutches apply gears directly. In a hydraulically controlled transmission (old ones), a governor, ( spinny weighted valve) is attached to ( i think. I may have passed the class, but it's still difficult :v) the output shaft. The governor uses cintrifugal force to pull itself in and out of a valve shaft thing to direct the hydraulic pressure to a vacuum modulator. That part, from what I understand, smooths the shift by progressively sending pressure, and determes which shift valves to send pressure based on engine vacuum. High vacuum. High load. Lower gear. And visa versa. That pressure, based on all of that goes to shift valves. Shift valve is opened or closed by the modulator, there are several valves. A shift valve only operates 2 gears. So the modulator desides which shift valve, and the governor decides which of the 2. And now we have shifting. Maybe. I'm starting to confuse even myself right now :v. I know i have the parts right. Im still missing the kickdown and some others. But main control parts are here. Whether i have them in the right order, i don't know :v please do not take this comment as 100% fact. As i said, i passed all my tests and final, but i did that with a textbook right in front of me if i was in doubt :v I'm sure there are much better, more correct explanations out there.

It's easier to understand with 2D! Now I'd like to see how double clutch gearbox works (DSG, EDC, PDK, etc.). I've heard about a clutch for even gears and a clutch for odd gears...

[@SCCrazyDriver]

In dual clutch gearbox you activate 2 gears simultaneously, but only one is coupled to output. There is nothing complicated - 2 shafts and when you shift up, gearbox deactivates clutch of shaft 1 and applies clutch of shaft 2... Both shafts goes to common output. As you see, you don't move mechanical parts in such shifting, only switch 2 clutches, this translates into very fast switching between gears. But! This applies only to sequential shifts, i.e. 1-2 or 2-3, not 1-3 or 2-4, because next gear was prepared when you shifted.

I didn't understand anything from 3D animation and very gratefull for this video. Now i didn't understand anything from this video either. So i think i'm just stupid.

[@rebelusa6585]

After i watch video i still have no clue how auto trans work.

[@mgodf89]

Cool animation, great explanation, and brilliant engineering - but I was hoping for a demonstration of the mechanism that does the actual automatic clutching!

[@johnkanene9031]

life is as complicated as planetary gear set

[@tuckyoubch]

I had to watch this twice and take notes, but I finally understand!!

[@feonor26]

I'm probably on my 7th attempt to try to understand this fully. I feel fucking stupid

[@19Mostar81]

I watch this every day, and all I can say is.. I will continue to watch it..

[@the_sheet]

these videos keep missing something that i need to understand... the best teachers give you that ah ha moment, but this does NOT

[@asjadazeez]

explained in a very good way. i could understand the mechanism. The video clearly explains how the gear ratio change is achieved, I could understand the gear ratio depends on which of the 6 clutches are activated. but i did not understand how the clutch is controlled in an automatic transmission. need to look out for that.

[@dawnpoint]

The clutches are controlled by hydraulic fluid pressure. Valves in the valve body control which clutch receives pressure to push it closed.

[@LucidDreamer54321]

It works automatically.

[@Unique_mineral]

Nice explanation and its more clear and easy to understand it in 2d sectional view. Because i already watch 3d video but get nothing except 1/3 reduction ratio. however i get it 100% in this 2d view.

[@gRRReg94]

From 3d animation i did not know that hollow sun gear is fixed via another rotating connection to input shaft, couldn't figure 3rd 5th :)

[@SabinCivil]

Nice to know that, that's the advantage of 2D animation.

[@gRRReg94]

Maybe you could do a video on how the clutches work on automatic, how they are controlled etc. Or why they have used such different design from the manual gearbox, what are the advantages, couldnt they just put electronic shifting mechanizm on manual and call it an automatic?

[@Fearofthemonster]

I always thought they just add an electronic shift to manual to make it automatic. Why did they need this system to make it automatic.

[@jr52990]

I would have understood this better seeing the 3D model. The 2D was more confusing to me.

[@SabinCivil]

We have a 3D model based video too. Please check it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5DcYoZueJV7o8U

[@jr52990]

Thank you

[@J-C8573]

I find you have to watch both, I started by understanding what could in the 3D video cause it shows what each part is, then I watched the 2D video to understand the working of the transmission

[@ssmallishplague]

Thanks!

[@aamerjalal6177]

what applies c1, c4 etc?

[@BennettHubert]

Learn Engineering, I would have not never understood it without your excellent video. Thank you so much!

[@dultra]

It is hard to learn

[@xnopyt13]

I tried so hard to try to understand how it works by watching the 3D version but i still couldn't, now this helps a lot! Thx

[@samovarmaker9673]

Roses are red Violets are blue by comparison Some technologies are easier to understand with the help of 3D animation But what about this six-speed automatic transmission from Alison?

[@abcxyz-cm8je]

it'll be insightful to analyze the angular speed of the satellite gear in world coordinate & in self coordinate

[@TheTwoFailerLP]

Fifth Gear got me nuts

[@ckartinguu]

So yea you’d never think a car would have this complicated mechanisms just because it’s part of our everyday life right? Nope it’s complicated as hell. Whoever came up with all these mechanisms and people who have developed on this are simply amazing. The future of humanity is bright.

[@johnadamski9913]

I am mechanically inclined, but I did not fully understand the video.

[@AutomotiveForBeginners]

I've got a 3D animation on how clutch packs work. It's called, "How Clutch Parks Work on a 6 Speed Automatic Transmission: SIMPLIFIED." Check it out.

[@crazycrookerr]

This cleared it up alot for me. the 3d video was a tad confusing but this 2d video helped!

[@5HT2A292]

On 1:59 it says "OUTUPT"

[@WmAHaynes]

This is much easier to follow than 3D model, thank you

[@oldergeologist]

I think he is lying.

[@Mau365PP]

This has to be the best explanation of the automatic transmition in youtube, thank you (the 2D was a great choice)

[@sultanabran1]

my life is like C5 and C2 engaged. i don't even know what that means.

[@chandr1242]

Thank for ths video...today I learned this in my college but I didn't understand..this video was awesome..thank u again

[@tabaks]

I'm amazad at how this video miserably fails

[@kenshinyo22]

How does it fail it’s very easy to understand

[@meiq3058]

So… Gear 1: C5 hold Ring#1, C1 so Sun#1 alone spin Planetary#1 Gear 2: C4 hold Ring#2 and C1 spin Sun#2 spin Planetary#2 revolve Ring#1. Sun#1 and a slow Ring#1 spin Planetary#1 Gear 4: C1 spin Sun#1, C2 spin Planetary#2 revolve Ring#1. Sun#1 and Ring#1, both in same speed, spin Planetary#1 as input shaft speed aka Direct Drive ratio. Gear 6: C2 spin Planetary#2, C4 hold Ring#2 so Planetary#2 focus on spinning Sun#2 faster while revolving Ring#1. Faster Sun#1 and normal speed Ring#1 spin Planetary#1, makes Overdrive ratio. Side note for Gear#3: Sun#3 always turn at engine speed, so when C3, the output of Planetary#3 is same as Planetary#1 in Gear 1 Gear 3: C3 hold Ring#3 so Planetary#3 that revolve at Gear 1 speed revolve Ring#2. C1 spin Sun#2, Sun#2 and slow Ring#2 spin Planetary#2 that revolve Ring#1. Sun#1 and not-so-slow Ring#1 spin Planetary#1. Gear 5: C2 spin Planetary#2, C3 hold Ring#3 so Planetary#3 revolve Ring#2 with Gear 1 speed. Ring#2 is moving so Planetary#2 spin Sun#2 at a rate slower than Gear 6 while revolving Ring#1. Not-so-fast Sun#1 and normal speed Ring#1 spin Planetary#1, makes Overdrive ratio below Gear 6. Reverse: C3 spin Ring#3 so Planetary#3 revolve Ring#2 that spin Planetary#2 that spin Sun#2 in the opposite direction. Sun#1 that spin in the opposite direction spin Planetary#1 so Planetary#1 revolve in the opposite direction. C5 to lock Ring#1 so Ring#1 will not follow the revolving movement of Planetary#1, and the revolving speed of Planetary#1 will therefore not be slowed. P.s. this is just a note for myself to understand better. lol. Let me know if I mistaken anything. Also, I recommend toying with this: www.thecatalystis.com/gears/ . It especially helps to understand Gear 6, Gear 5, and Reverse

[@DontHatemusiK]

3D video would be better. Not a fan of this video

[@thechallengers2536]

Look back he made one 6 months ago in 3d👍
