Abstract: Aiming at the problem of heavy body inertia, non-stationary and non-linear properties of the load for a large wheel-type steelworks transporter, a research on power matching and optimum performance control for nonlinear driving system is done. Through analysis and modelling by the characteristics of the engine and hydraulic converter, input/output characteristic and drawbar performance of the engine and torque converter are obtained. Proved by practice, the research results have important guiding significance, which can be applied to other similar products.

Keywords: steelworks transporters; hydraulic torque converter; speed characteristics; vehicle dynamics; power matching; driving system modelling; wheel-type transporters; iron and steel mills; heavy vehicles; heavy body inertia; performance control; nonlinear driving systems; drawbar performance.
