摘要：

The efficiency of agricultural tractor transmission has been improved over the years, with new concepts such as Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) and Full Powershift (FPS) evolving in advanced technologies. Both options seek to offer the farmer greater operational results with lower energy expenditure, necessitating studies to assess the effectiveness of these technologies and define the best choice for each purpose. The objective of this work was to evaluate the energy efficiency of two tractors equipped with CVT and FPS transmissions. For this, a strip experiment was conducted in a randomized block design, that analyzed, in addition to CVT and FPS transmissions, target velocities of 4, 6, 8 and 10 km h(-1). Operational energy performance parameters were evaluated, such as slippage index, engine rotation, operational velocity, fuel consumption, power available and efficiency on the drawbar, turbo pressure and temperatures of air intake and exhaust gas. Based on the results obtained, the tractor with FPS transmission was more energy efficient in most of the analyzed parameters, requiring 16.31% less in hourly fuel consumption, and providing 16.29% more in the traction bar yield, however, with lower operational velocity compared to the tractor with CVT transmission.
