Three phases in a torque converter
Converter phase coupling phase and lock up please
What is converter phase
Converter phase in the turbine is turning slower than the impeller vortex flow
What is coupling face
Coupling faces on the turbine an impeller or turning in approximately the same speed
What is lock up phase
Lock up occurs when the turbine in the impeller are locked together by mechanical means
What is vortex flow
Or text flow is when the oil is going from the impeller to the turbine and back in a circular motion
What is rotary flow
Rotary flow is when all the fluid in the torque converter sitting at the same speed as a converter itself
What does the stage me in regards to torque converter
Stage refers to the number of times oil strikes the turbine before he returns to the impeller
