I know this was more of a rhetorical question, but the gist of it is that your university professor doesn't really have to go above and beyond. He only needs to do his job, and if he isn't passionate, that's that. Jason on the other hand needs to be good at what he does, since his success in teaching is directly proportionate to how well his channel is doing, and thus his income.

@nik7bkh965 4 года назад
@@David-lr2vi can't compete with Koenigsegg? To be fair, all these "innovations" Koenigsegg came up with (Free Valve, Lightspeed transmission, top mounted spoiler, etc) are pretty meaningless if the car is not performing. For example every McLaren Senna with half the power or even a 488 pista is faster around tracks than these Koenigseggs. Koenigsegg cars are brutal but way less refined, they often lack traction or stability, which makes them hard and not fun to drive unlike cars such as the Gt2rs, the pista or the Senna, which all are way less powerful but better performing.
@David-lr2vi
@David-lr2vi 4 года назад
Nik7 BKH. Well McLaren is another niche car maker. I understand that the whole package makes the car. My whole point is that it seems that it’s the small volume car makers that seem to be doing all the R&D these days and not the mainstream companies like Toyota, Honda, Ford, GM, etc. Maybe the big car companies are all spending their R&D money on electric cars?

Im studying mechanical engineering at DTU in Denmark, one of our teachers helped koenigsegg building this transmission. He told us that the biggest challange with this transmission was that the gears had to be very thin because of all the clutches. Most computer programs said the transmission was completly impossible to design. The tolerances in this transmission is extremely tight, and also the expected lifetime is not that high :D

@abes3925
@abes3925 5 лет назад
The difference being is that cars like Rolls-Royce are going to driven unlike the Koenigsegg which are garage queen due to how long it takes to get any repaired when the cars break down which happens frequently. Most of the technology koenigsegg uses has already been experimented by other automakers. There’s a reason they didn’t use said technology mostly because the difficulty of mass production, too little improvement over existing designs, or being unreliable.

How does Koenigsegg handle the 3/4 and 6/7 shifts, especially with clutch overlap for continuous power delivery? Those two involve swapping not one but two pairs of clutches - shifting one sub-transmission a step up and shifting the other down. All modern multi-clutch automatics involve only a single clutch-to-clutch swap for every sequential and double shift to avoid engine flare or bogging down the engine.

@@mikkihintikka7273 yes, like on a motorcycle or manual trans car traditionally; but with so many clutches in this design(7 counting reverse) where most of them have to be open(5 open and only 2 closed for forward gears, and 6 open for reverse) it would seem better if normally they were all open in a 'resting' state ... a car or motorcycle uses springs to hold the clutch closed at rest, but here you could just use a solenoid to close it at will? - I wish he would have said how they operated the clutches in the video

@Kyriaeus
@Kyriaeus 5 лет назад
Almost, except all modern automatic are based on planetary gearsets, and the powerflow and clutch schedule are cleverly arranged such that all sequential and double shifts are accomplished by opening one clutch pack and closing another. The Koenigsegg LST requires swapping two pairs of clutches on the 3/4 and 6/7 shifts, which makes the shift a lot more complicated to control properly to avoid engine flare or bogging down the engine. Also, modern automatics bypass the hydraulic torque converter fairly early on in the gear ranges with a torque converter clutch.

Great explanation as always Jason! It's really fascinating they put clutches where syncromeshes are usually at. From what I see the clutch 4, 5, 6 are the busiest ones for daily city driving as they're responsible for 1st to 3rd gear changes. The least used one perhaps the clutch 3, if you don't shift beyond 6th gear you'd never use it. All this changes if you mainly run the car on circuit though. After a year of daily usage the clutch sets 4 - 6 would wear out the most, then perhaps the clutch 1? As there is no "flywheel" vs main clutch plate slip to start the car, like in standard car, would this gearbox let the clutch 1 fully grip then let the clutch 4 slip to start the vehicle? Or vise versa? Or both clutches slip to start the car? In a metaphor for bicycle, the 1st tier gear sets are like you have 3 gears on front derailer and 2nd sets are the rear 3 gears - hence gives you 9 possible different ratio combinations. 3 is a nice number, 2x2 wouldn't really work coz that only gives you 4 speeds, 4x4 is bit too excessive (16 speeds) but might work for trucks.

The 3 gears basically have 3 ranges or different ratios they can apply forces to, instead of all the movement of traditional style gear, they all stay mated, rotating at their own speeds but not applying force to the output shaft until the clutch packs for the selected gear are engaged. The gears are ALWAYS ready.. When movement is reduced, so is time!!!

The key question is how long will the clutches last. In this design these clutches are holding the full torque of the engine while engaging and there is no main clutch or torque converter to slip, particularly during starting or slow crawling. Also, since the clutch packs are between the gears, you can't make them too big either. I think that a design like this for a street car would have a very short lifespan. Good thing that nobody is actually going to be putting miles on these cars given their cost.

@Pheatan
@Pheatan 5 лет назад
Its not that hard to imagine. you just need to have the engine RPM to be the same as it would be after you would shift normally. Say you're in 3rd gear at 30mph you would probably be at 3000 RPM engine speed. When you shift to 4th it would go down to 2000rpm so if you pull the stick into neutral which requires 0 effort. Get the RPM to 2000 then put it in 4th. The synchros in the transmission essentially do that for you, but they can wear out. Although messing up clutchless shifting will wear out the teeth of the transmission
