Accumulator: Description and Operation

OPERATION
The function of an accumulator is to cushion the application of a frictional clutch element. When pressurized fluid is applied to a clutch circuit, the
application force is dampened by fluid collecting in the respective accumulator chamber against the piston and springs. The intended result is a smooth,
firm clutch application.
