Abstract
A clutch arrangement, especially for a motor vehicle, comprising a housing arrangement (12) which is filled or which can be filled with fluid, at least one first friction element (22) which can be jointly rotated with the housing arrangement (12) and at least one second friction organ (24) which can be jointly rotated with an output element (18) and which can be brought to rest against the at least one first friction element (22) in order to produce at least one interactive friction effect. At least one friction element (22, 24) is embodied in such a way that fluid can circulate around at least certain areas of the friction elements (22, 24).
