Abstract
In todays modern, emerging world, scientists and engineers have come up with advanced transmission technolgies. Continuous Variable Transmission(CVT) is a transmission system which eliminates the need of shifting gears by introducing infinite gear ratios. It uses a metallic belt consisting of 400 segments and laminated rings fixed over 2 pulleys which can continuosly change its diameter. The frictional force which is generated between the belt and the pulley is used for the transmission of power. Suitable torque is proveded to the system with the help of continuous adjustment of diameters of the two pullleys. CVT is included in the automatic transmission category of automobiles and is one of the most used automatic transmission technologies.CVT is more fuel efficient compared to manual transmission. With new technologies comes new problems and in case of CVT some of the most common problems include overheating, slipping and sudden loss of acceleration. The aim of this research paper is to asses the fuel consumption property of CVT, discuss various problems assosciated with it and find an appropriate solution to it.
