Abstract
Simulation of the gear train is an important part of the dynamic simulation of the power train of a medium speed diesel engine. In this paper, the advantages of dynamic gear wheel simulation as a part of the flexible multibody simulation of a complete power train are described. The simulation is performed using AVL EXCITE Power Unit.
Highlights
The power train of a medium speed diesel engine consist of a crankshaft, connecting rods, intermediate gears, and cam shafts
Gear joint results can be used for dimensioning of the gear pairs
The results from a properly made simulation model of the whole crank train correspond accurately with measurements made on the engine
Summary
Simulation of the gear train is an important part of the dynamic simulation of the power train of a medium speed diesel engine. The advantages of dynamic gear wheel simulation as a part of the flexible multibody simulation of a complete power train are described. The simulation is performed using AVL EXCITE Power Unit.
