Design and Analysis of an Epicyclic Gear Train for Formula Student Electric Drivetrain
摘要
The research paper focuses on design and analysis of epicyclic gear train for a formula student electric drivetrain. Epicyclic gear trains provide a wide variety of gear ratios within a compact size. Due to its load distribution, it reduces the wear and increases durability of the system. The dimensions of the gears were finalized using the standard gear design process followed by the designing of the CAD model and finite element analysis of all the components. The mountings and bearings were designed using standard design procedures, along with complete assembly.
