  2. Continuously variable transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_variable...

    A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automated transmission that can change through a continuous range of gear ratios, typically resulting in better fuel economy in gasoline applications. [1] This contrasts with other transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps.

  3. Automatic transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission

    A continuously variable transmission (CVT) can change seamlessly through a continuous (infinite) range of gear ratios, compared with other automatic transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps. The flexibility of a CVT with suitable control may allow the engine to operate at a constant angular velocity while the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    A continuously variable transmission (CVT) can change seamlessly through a continuous range of gear ratios. This contrasts with other transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps. The flexibility of a CVT with suitable control may allow the engine to operate at a constant RPM while the vehicle moves at varying speeds.

    CVT may refer to: Science and technology. Capacitor voltage transformer, an electrical transformer commonly used in high-voltage transmission line applications;

  6. Variomatic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variomatic

    Variomatic is the continuously variable transmission (CVT) of the Dutch car manufacturer DAF, originally developed by Hub van Doorne. [1] It is a stepless, fully- automatic transmission , consisting of a V-shaped drive-belt, and two pulleys , each of two cones, whose effective diameter can be changed so that the "V" belt runs nearer the spindle ...

  7. Toyota K CVT transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_K_CVT_transmission

    The K110 was Toyota's first belt-type CVT and production began in August 2000. Toyota said that the transmission was both fuel-efficient and offered high driving performance. The K110 features a torque converter with a long-travel damper to help achieve quiet operation and improved fuel efficiency. Applications: Toyota Opa – 2.0L (2000–2005)

  8. Biological process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_process

    Biological processes are those processes that are necessary for an organism to live and that shape its capacities for interacting with its environment. Biological processes are made of many chemical reactions or other events that are involved in the persistence and transformation of life forms.

  9. multitronic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitronic

    The Multitronic system uses a link-plate chain drive, [2] an oil-cooled multi-plate clutch [2] (initially of six parts, [2] later of seven to enable it to cope better with the high torque outputs of larger turbodiesel engines), and complex electronics, to overcome the traditional shortcomings of CVTs, [2] and allow a CVT transmission to be ...
