動力伝達システムの概要

動力伝達システムは、Rail Vehicle Types[[:| ]]に動力を与え、推進させる一連の機器です。エンジン、バッテリー、発電機、そしてトランスミッション、逆転機 、車輪、その他の要素で構成される駆動システム は全て動力伝達システムに含まれます。Derail Valleyには、いくつかの種類の動力伝達システムがあります。

• 架線式電気車- 車両の上を走る電源 と電動 トランスミッションが特徴です。

• Battery-Electric - Features an onboard battery electric powersource and electric transmission.

• Diesel-Electric - Features an onboard internal combustion engine powersource and electric transmission.

• Diesel-Hydraulic - Features an onboard internal combustion engine powersource and hydraulic transmission .

• Diesel-Mechanical - Features an internal combustion engine and mechanical transmission

• Steam - Features a steam-powered engine and transmission .

The type of powertrain a vehicle comes with notably affects its characteristics . Among those, there is a risk of powertrain overheating , and the different types of damage a powertrain can receive, such as mechanical and electrical .

Vehicles' powertrain type is what dictates the starting portion of their name .
