Technique for EXAMING Epicyclic Gear Box

چکیده
This paper presents a method for analyzing epicyclic gearboxes by evaluating the speeds, torques and efficiency of the external elements in epicyclic gear mechanisms, as well as the total ratios of the gear box. The method is based on the equations that describe each epicyclic gear mechanism and rules that assign appropriate codes to the external elements. The method emphasizes how power flows are transmitted through the epicyclic gears. Analysis of an epicyclic gear box is performed to illustrate the proposed method.

متن کاملNew Intelligent Transmission Concept for Hybrid Mobile Robot Speed Control
This paper presents a new concept of a mobile robot speed control by using two degree of freedom gear transmission. The developed intelligent speed controller utilizes a gear box which comprises of epicyclic gear train with two inputs, one coupled with the engine shaft and another with the shaft of a variable speed dc motor. The net output speed is a combination of the two input speeds and is g...

متن کاملFuel consumption-aware powertrain selection and optimization for a B-class sedan
In current research we studied different powertrain options for a given B-class sedan vehicle in terms of fuel consumption target. The considered options include two engines and a base manual gearbox assuming the gear numbers and ratios can be changed. We concentrated on 5 and 6 speed gearboxes and used two parallel techniques to optimize gear ratios of the manual gearbox due to in-cycle fuel c...
متن کاملFourier Series Analysis of Epicyclic Gearbox Vibration
Epicyclic gears are used in many applications because they can achieve a large torque/speed ratio in a compact package. In most gearboxes, the estimated spectrum of the vibration signal is symmetric and centered at the meshing frequency. For epicyclic gears, the estimated spectrum is typically asymmetric and the dominant frequency component does not occur at the meshing frequency. This is an im...
