Gear-SCouP
Oct 17, 2013, 18:00 PM
Gear-SCouP is an analytical model for the rating analysis of articulated spline coupling
designs. Articulated splines are commonly used in the planetary stage of wind turbine
gearboxes as the means of transmitting the driving torque while improving load-sharing.
Direct measurement of spline loads and performance is extremely challenging because
of limited accessibility and spline design standards are limited. For a given torque
and shaft misalignment, Gear-SCouP quickly yields physical insights into relationships
between the spline design parameters and resulting loads, bending, contact, and shear
stresses, and safety factors considering various heat treatment methods.
