METHOD FOR OPERATING A RETARDER

摘要

The invention relates to a method for operating a hydrodynamic retarder having at least one working chamber that is filled with a working medium in braking mode, and substantially emptied in non-braking mode. According to the invention, a prescribed amount of working medium is pulsingly brought into the working chamber of the retarder in non-braking mode. This can occur either constantly, or as a function of suitable measurement variables.
