Abstract: An investigation was completed into the power loss associated with a rotating feed-through (RFT) design feature used to transfer lubrication and a hydraulic control signal from the static reference frame to a rotating reference frame in the NASA GRC two-speed transmission tests conducted in the Variable-Speed Drive Test Rig. The RFT feature, not commercially available, was created specifically for this research project and is integral to all two-speed transmission configurations tested, as we…
