Abstract

This paper describes a mathematical model of hydrodynamic torque converter applied to construction optimisation using a genetic algorithm as an optimisation method. The model estimation was performed for a pre-selected hydrodynamic torque converter. A modelling error of steady-state characteristic was considered as the quality criterion. During estimation calculations, the Monte Carlo method and a genetic algorithm were applied as optimisation methods. Verification of the applied mathematical model of hydrodynamic torque converter revealed a modelling error of about 5.8%.
