HYDRODYNAMIC POWER TRANSMISSION FOR DIESEL SHUNTING LOCOMOTIVES

HYDRODYNAMISCHE KRAFTUEBERTRAGUNG FUER DIESELRANGIER-LOKOMOTIVEN

Electric and hydraulic transmission systems and their significance for diesel shunting locomotives is considered. Technical development of the hydrodynamic power transmission, is illustrated by the example of the turbo-reversing transmission of the Voith type. The improvement of tractive effort and braking force characteristics and the effect of this on the design of industrial locomotives with maximum speeds up to 40 km/h and multi-purpose locomotives for mixed shunting and main line operation with maximum speeds of 60 to 70 km/h. is pointed out.
