풍력발전기는 2000년대 초반에 발전기 회전자 직경이 80m에 이르는 2MW급 풍력발전기들이 여러 회사에서 개발되면서 경제성 및 신뢰성도 향상되어 비약적인 발전을 이루게 되었다. 풍력발전시장의 신규발주와 설치장소가 한계점에 이르게 됨으로써 경제성이 뛰어난 대형 풍력발전기의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이와 같이 풍력발전기의 대형화 추세는 대형화를 통해 에너지 효율의 증대뿐만 아니라 단위 용량 당 건설비 및 설비비 절감이 가능하기 때문에 풍력발전기 대형화를 위한 기술개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 현재 풍력발전기에 사용되는 기계적 기어박스는 윤활유 주입 및 보수 점검의 문제점이나 소음, 진동, 마찰에 의한 열 발생 등의 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 기계적 기어박스를 마그네틱 기어를 이용하여 구성하고자 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 마그네틱 기어를 이용하여 10MW급 풍력발전기의 기어박스를 설계하고 그 가능성을 검토하고자 한다.

Planetary gear design is complex because it involves a combination of discrete variables such as module, integer variables such as the number of teeth, and continuous variables such as face width and aspect ratio. Thus, an optimum design technique is needed. In this study, we applied a genetic algorithm to the design optimization of a planetary gear. In this algorithm, tooth root strength and surface durability are assessed with fundamental variables such as the number of teeth, module, pressure angle, and face width. With the help of this technique, gear designers could reduce trial and error in the initial design stages, thus cutting the time required for planetary gear design.

Gear pump has a simple structure high reliability, easy operation and maintenance, widely used as a source of hydraulic system of hydraulic. In general, the gear pump was designed using variety of variables, the variables through the analysis of the mass flow rate and efficiency. In this paper, three-dimensional flow of the gear pump, in order to produce the optimal design of product, analysis was performed by using commercial software ANSYS v15.0 CFX. And then, combination of design parameters selected by ANSYS was carried out to confirm the simulation result. The efficiency and mass flow rate of the gear pump were studied by varying its rotational speed and the clearance between the gear tip and the housing. In the simulation results, as the rotational speed were increased, the average mass flow rate and efficiency increased. Furthermore, as the clearance between the gear tip and the housing was increased, the average mass flow rate and efficiency decreased.

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.

The present paper describes a conceptual design of a turbopump which employs a planetary gear system. In a launcher system, weight is one of the most important design factor. In turbopump systems using propellants such as kerosene, or methane, single shaft systems are employed because of simplicity. One of the main disadvantages of this system, however, is the same rotational speed of both pumps and a turbine which forces to operate under non-optimum condition. To operate each component in optimum or favorable rotational speeds, a planetary gear system seems to be the best choice when the compactness and efficiency of a turbopump system is considered. A conceptual design and feasibility of the turbopump system adopting a planetary gear system is suggested.

A cam ring gear (CRG) system based on a hypotrochoid curve consists of a pinion with roller teeth and its conjugated internal CRG. In this study, we investigated contact forces, contact stresses, and load stress factors to predict the surface pitting life using an exact CRG profile by introducing the profile modification coefficient. The results show that the pitting life can be extended significantly by increasing the profile modification coefficient without any other change of parameters in the CRG system.

The design and manufacture of injection molded Sear with desired Properties is a costly process dominated by empiricism including the interactive modification of prototype toolings. In this paper, an interactive computer-based design system for injection molded gear is developed in order to realize the concept of rational design for the productivity and quality of mold making of a small plastic gear. The knowledge-based synthesis system being developed in this paper combines a rule-based expert system with analytical process simulation programs in a synergistical manner. Quick and logical evaluations on the design of injection molded gear can be made on the scientific analysis and the accumulated experts' knowledge.

Elliptical gear is used as a rotor of oval flowmeter. The elliptical gear can assist water flow-rate measurement by the space of the elliptical shape. Presently, elliptical gears have been processed using hob tool imported from Japan. But if it were not for the technical cooperation with Japan company, the Elliptical gears can't be processed. The purpose of this study is developing a domestic technology for elliptical gears and overcoming the dependence of foreign technical skills. It will bring the import substitution effect. In case of pressure angle $20^{\circ}$, the elliptical gears have an interference of tooth. The increase of pressure angle makes the root of a tooth thick and the top of tooth thin. By results of this study, tooth of elliptical gear was designed and verified through the 2D and 3D simulation.

Magnetic gear can transmit torque without any mechanical contact among rotational parts in rotating mechanical systems. Especially, magnetic gear using rare-earth PMs can be used in variety of industry application because of their great power efficiency. Thus, recent trend shows that magnetic gear can be replaced with common mechanical gear. This paper deals with comparison and torque analysis for magnetic gears with parallel and Halbach magnetization according to various design parameters. Using a two dimensional (2D) finite element (FE) analysis, suitable gear ratio is selected. We performed analysis for magnetically connected inner and outer torque with respect to various design parameters including thickness of inner and outer PM, steel pole angle, segments of Halbach array and magnetization pattern of inner and outer PMs. Finally, we can obtain improved design model having parallel and Halbach magnetization with larger torque, compared with an initial design model.
