Creating the Limited Slip Differential
You can now create the limited slip differential on the front differential. The limited slip differential behavior is defined using a torque that senses the difference in angular velocity between the left and right wheels and transfers the torque according to a characteristic specified in a property file.
To create the limited slip differential:
1. From the Driveline Components menu, point to Limited Slip Differential, and then select New.
2. In the Limited Slip Differential Name text box, enter front_lsd.
3. Right-click the text boxes and select Guesses or Browse to find the appropriate options:
■First Gear Part: gel_side_gear_front
■Second Gear Part: ger_side_gear_front
■Differential Case Part: ges_diff_case_front
■First Coordinate Reference: cfl_side_gear_front
■Second Coordinate Reference: cfr_side_gear_front
4. Verify that Type is set to Viscous.
5. Right-click the Property File text box, point Search, point to <adriveline_shared>/differentials.tbl, and then double-click viscous_coupling.dif.
6. Select OK.
