  2. Advance ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_ratio

    It helps in understanding the efficiency of the propeller at different speeds and is particularly useful in the design and analysis of propeller-driven vehicles.It is the ratio of the freestream fluid speed to the propeller, rotor, or cyclorotor tip speed. When a propeller-driven vehicle is moving at high speed relative to the fluid, or the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_Roto_Hydramatic...

    HydraMatic Division calls the Roto a four-range, three-gear HydraMatic. It counts the stator multiplication at 3.50:1 as a first gear, and when road speed and the two coupling halves’ speed match, it counts the same gear with fluid now passing straight through the stator as 2nd gear at 2.93 to one.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_5L40-E_transmission

    The 5L40E unit's centerpiece is an automatic overdrive which supersedes the French-made 4L30E four-speed automatic light-duty gearboxes, and like them features a torque converter clutch to eliminate slipping losses in select forward ranges. It is assembled in Strasbourg, France. The 5L40/50 series was replaced in 2007 with the 6L50 six-speed.

  5. Transmission (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

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

    A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set—two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine. [1] [2] Transmissions can have a single fixed-gear ratio, multiple distinct gear ratios, or continuously variable ratios. Variable ...

    Manual – the driver has to perform each gear change using a manually operated clutch; Automatic – once placed in drive (or any other 'automatic' selector position), it automatically selects the gear ratio dependent on engine speed and load; Basically there are two types of engine installation:

  7. GM 8L transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_8L_transmission

    The 8L 90 is the first 8-speed automatic transmission built by General Motors. It was debuting in 2014 and is designed for use in longitudinal engine applications either attached to the front-located engine [ 3 ] with a standard bell housing or in the rear of the car adjacent to the differential (as in the Corvette).

  8. Manual transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

    A manual transmission (MT), also known as manual gearbox, standard transmission (in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States), or stick shift (in the United States), is a multi-speed motor vehicle transmission system where gear changes require the driver to manually select the gears by operating a gear stick and clutch (which is usually ...
