Abstract: A transmission is subject to thermal management to prevent damage or failure due to overheating. Sensors can be employed to capture characteristics of a transmission, such as fluid temperature or pressure. Further, a predictive model can be invoked to predict characteristics based on current and future conditions. Characteristics can be compared with a threshold for intervention. A thermal mitigation strategy can be generated and initiated when characteristics satisfy the threshold. The thermal mitigation strategy can specify various actions to dissipate heat, including altering shift control logic and triggering mechanical devices that can increase airflow, reduce air temperature, or both surrounding the transmission.

Abstract: A line pressure valve includes a valve housing having a central cavity and a plurality of inlet and outlet ports, and a spool positioned within the central cavity and axially displaceable therein, the spool having a plurality of radial cutouts that fluidly connect respective inlet and outlet ports based on an axial position of the spool with respect to the valve housing. First and second pumps are fluidly connectable and disconnectable respectively to and from the fluid circuit based on the axial position of the spool via the inlet and outlet ports.

Abstract: Disclosed is an exemplary hydraulic system including a first fluid circuit and a second fluid circuit. The hydraulic system further includes a first pump fluidly connected to the first fluid circuit and fluidly connectable to the second fluid circuit, and a second pump fluidly connectable to the first and second fluid circuits. The hydraulic system includes a first valve that may be arranged in a first position for fluidly disconnecting the first and second pumps from the second fluid circuit, a second position for fluidly connecting the second pump to the second fluid circuit and fluidly disconnecting the first pump from the second fluid circuit, and a third position for fluidly connecting the first and second pumps to the second fluid circuit.
