Abstract
It is shown in the paper that the power which is transmitted by the respective links of a multiple-path gear train may be easily identified by setting up a graph of the gear train G 1(ω) for a set of variable angular velocities ω, as well as the mutually conjugate graph, G 2(M) , for a set of torque loads on the respective links. This new method, which is called the graph method, utilizes the principles of signal flow graphs. It is characterized by a good efficiency for determining the power transmitted by any link within the gear train. Moreover, this method makes it possible to determine the value and direction of the circulating power stream flowing through the single or multiplepath closed kinematic chains of a multiple path gear train.
