TORQUE CONVERTER DESCRIPTION [JA5A-EL]

BME051719100T02

## Outline

• The JA5A-EL uses a three-element, single-gear, two-phase torque converter with torque converter clutch (TCC) mechanism.
• The torque converter efficiently matches the output characteristic of AJ engine.
• By matching the output characteristics of the engine in order to optimize the configuration of the impellers, the torque converter increases the capacity coefficient in the practical range, thereby improving drivability and fuel economy.
• The TCC mechanism under certain conditions transmits the drive force by automatically connecting the pump impeller with the turbine runner as opposed to using fluid. Therefore it prevents the torque converter from slipping.
