Simulation analysis of the tooth modification about wind power gearbox based on Romax software

Abstract

At present, the gearboxes are faced with the problems of high failure rate, large vibration and noise, short service life etc. Gear modification is an effective means to reduce vibration and noise, extend life, which has been proved by practical experience at home and abroad for many years. With the introduction of some professional gear software or wind turbine analysis software from abroad, the work efficiency has been improved greatly and the extra cost due to experimental verification has also been reduced. With the use of Romax WIND excellent load distribution analysis function on the basis of the theory of gear modification, the static simulation analysis of the gearbox through the Romax WIND software was carried out under the equivalent loads. According to the load distribution on the tooth surface of gear, transmission errors and other parameters, the length, amount and curve of axial modification and the tooth profile of the high-speed pinion gear were analyzed and determined in the end. Conclusions can provide reference for gear modification.
