Abstract
A braking and/or clutch arrangement has a cooling system which is sealed off with respect to excess pressure. Liquid coolant is fed under pressure to friction elements and first comes in contact with the surface areas of the friction elements whose relative speed is the highest. The operating device required for operating the friction elements is connected with the clutch half which in the operation is subjected to lower rotational accelerations to reduce heat formation.
