Hi All

First time post, so hope Iam on topic

Can anyone point me at some links that describes the way the torque is split in an open differential. I know its normally 50/50 but I need info on what happens under +ve and -ve slip ratios. If anyone knows how it works or any links that may help that would be great.

Thanks for your time.

Chris

Many thanks for the links guys I have had 3 days fo searching the web for anything other than basic principles of a diff. The Torsen white paper is handy but still lacks the basic knowledge I need to model the diff.

Guess I need to ask around a little more
Thanks for the help.
