Abstract

Transmissions including spur gears are widely used in several industrial applications. They are characterized by high efficiency and capability to transmit high torques. A special attention should be made for transmissions running under varying loading conditions which have to be well monitored. The presence of this variability associated with defects that may occur in the transmission will complicate its condition monitoring. The first step to overcome this difficulty is to identify and characterize the dynamic response of the transmission in healthy conditions subjected to variable loading conditions. In this paper, a model based approach is presented in order investigate the influence of the loading shape on the vibration characteristics of the transmission. A dynamic model of a one stage spur gear transmission including a time varying loading conditions is developed. Two cases of loading conditions are considered. A parametric study is achieved and main conclusions are discussed.
