Abstract

Planetary gear transmissions are widely utilized in rotating machinery which is running under stationary or non-stationary conditions.

In this work, a numerical study of a planetary gear transmission is investigated in both run up the regime and stationary condition.

The non-linear dynamic behavior of a single stage planetary gear during these two regimes was studied. The non-linearity is induced by the Hertzian contact force between teeth gear and it is implemented in a torsional lumped parameter model. In addition, the gear system is excited with the motor torque variation and the fluctuation of ring-planets and sun-planets mesh stiffness during the non-stationary regime. The system equations of motion were resolved by using the implicit type numerical integration technique Newmark-β with Newton-Raphson method. The obtained numerical results approve the influence of the Hertzian stiffness on the dynamic behavior of the system, especially in the run-up regime.
