title = "Numerical Investigation on the Flows within Friction Pairs of a Wet Clutch",
abstract = "It is of great importance to study the lubricating oil flow field within the friction pairs of wet multi-disc clutches. Consideration of the oil inlet flow rate will be important for the cooling of friction pairs. In this study, a numerical model is developed with radial oil grooves taken into account, and the effect of the oil inlet flow rate and relative rotational speed between the friction pairs are analyzed. The results show that the lubricating oil flow velocity gradually increases with the increase of the inlet flow rate. However, when the relative rotational speed is low, the flow velocity gradually decreases in the radial direction, while it increases gradually under high rotational speed. Moreover, When the friction disc has radial oil grooves, the flow rate of lubricating oil in the oil groove is obviously greater than that of the oil film. The oil film flow velocity is smaller than that without the oil groove. This paper has an important reference value for improving the heat dissipation performance of wet clutch friction elements.",
