The scope and purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to provide a standard pattern or sequence for the manual control of automatic transmissions in passenger cars and light-duty trucks.

The following is a list of the most common terminology used in describing automatic transmission functions.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides a method to determine the performance characteristics of the hydraulic oil pumps used in automatic transmissions and automatic transaxles. This document outlines the specific tests that describe the performance characteristics of these pumps over a range of operating conditions and the means to present the test data. This document is not intended to assess pump durability.

The scope and purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to provide a standard pattern or sequence for the manual control of automatic transmissions in passenger cars and light-duty trucks. This generally refers to left hand drive mechanical shift applications.

The following schematic diagrams reflect various methods of illustrating automotive transmission arrangements. These have been developed to facilitate a clear understanding of the functional interrelations of the gearing, clutches, hydrodynamic drive unit, and other transmission components. Two variations of transmission diagrams are used: in neutral (clutches not applied) and in gear. For illustrative purposes, some typical transmissions are shown.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as the definition of a standard test, which may be subject to frequent change to keep pace with experience and technical advances. This should be kept in mind when considering its use. a. The specific purpose of this document is to define a compression fatigue life testing procedure for wet friction material. This procedure is intended as a standard for both the suppliers and end users. The only variables selected by the supplier or user of the friction system are: a. Friction Material b. Fluid c. Maximum Load d. Fatigue Test Cycle requirements These variables must be clearly identified when reporting the results of this test. If any of the test parameters or system hardware as described in this document are changed, other than the variables above, the data may not be reported as having been obtained using this procedure.

This SAE Recommended Practice defines flywheel configuration to promote standardization of flywheels for engine flywheel mounted torque converters. Tables 1A and 1B and Figure 1 give dimensions for flywheels mounted-type torque converters. For torque converters using drive ring overcenter type disconnect clutch, see SAE J620.

The range of test conditions on the dynamometer shall be sufficient to determine the primary operating characteristics corresponding to the full range of vehicle operations. The characteristics to be determined are: a Torque ratio versus speed ratio and output speed b Input speed versus speed ratio and output speed c Efficiency versus speed ratio and output speed d Capacity factor versus speed ratio and output speed e Input torque versus input speed NOTE: For more information about these characteristics and the design of hydrodynamic drives, refer to “Design Practices: Passenger Car Automatic Transmissions,” SAE Advances in Engineering, AE-18 (Third Ed.) or AE-29 (Fourth Ed.).

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as the definition of a standard test, which may be subject to frequent change to keep pace with experience and technical advances. This should be kept in mind when considering its use. The specific purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to define a procedure to determine intrinsic properties of friction materials such as compressive modulus and rebound/recovery time at specific fatigue test pressures. Results from this test will both independently characterize the friction material and serve as input to the compression fatigue test. NOTE: If this test is intended to determine the rebound interval for the compression fatigue test, then the maximum test pressure (Pmax) in this procedure must be selected with future fatigue testing levels in mind. It is important that the rebound time is sufficient at the maximum apply pressure to allow the matieral to rebound back to its original thickness. Standard reporting processes are recommended.
