METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE TRANSMISSION OUTPUT TORQUE FOR AN EARTHMOVING MACHINE

摘要

In one aspect of the present invention, a method for determining an estimate of a torque of a powertrain at a point M using a computer based model is provided. The powertrain includes a driveline and an engine. The method includes the steps of sensing a plurality of parameters of the powertrain in realtime during operation and responsively producing a plurality of respective parameter signals, and receiving the parameter signals, determining a modeled value of the torque, and responsively producing a torque signal.
