Abstract

See full text

In a dual clutch transmission, a transmission control unit operates at vehicle start such that a clutch engaged is changed from a second clutch, which is on a high speed gear stage side, to a first clutch, which is on a low speed gear stage side, resulting in a torque transmission path being changed. At this time, torque capacities of the first and second clutches change so that thermal loads on the first and second clutches are equal or approximately equal according to a clutch rotational speed difference that is a rotational speed difference between the driving side and the driven side in the first clutch.
