Abstract
This paper discusses a series of procedures and results for designing the gear part of a fuel transfer pump for an aircraft, developed as an independent technology for the first time in Korea. A gear pump type is selected because the design requirements of the fuel transfer pump are met by a gear pump with a characteristics of less leakage inside than a vane pump with superior overall performance. The gear housing is designed with suitable clearance, considering the outer diameter of the gear, which is the main factor on which the flow can be determined. Additionally, the calculation of the required hydraulic and axial force for the motor to drive the fuel transfer pump was performed.
