摘要
A controllable hydrodynamic retarder system for a transmission including an electronic controller unit (ECU) for selecting and controlling brake torque by adjusting a retarder outlet pressure is described. The system can include an algorithm to calculate a retarder outlet pressure set point or tables or brake torque curves or profiles to allow the ECU to calculate or look up the functional relationships between the retarder RT outlet pressure, a vehicle or rotor speed, and a brake torque curve selected by the operator to provide the selected RT outlet pressure. The systems disclosed can also include a cooling system or utilize a vehicles engine cooling system. In one embodiment, the cooler can be shared between a transmission and the controllable retarder and can be adjusted to accommodate cooling requirements. The ECU can also make adjustments to the RT outlet pressure to address short term and long term RT overheating protection independent of the cooling system.
