In the design of epicyclic gearing, the analysis of interference and mechanical efficiency is an important index. As an applied way, epicyclic gearing can be used for planetary gear drive and differential gear unit. In case that one of its components is fixed with intend, it is called planetary gear drive. On the contrary, in case that no component is fixed, it is called differential gear unit. In this paper, various design constraints and interferences are defined for 2K-H I type epicyclic gearing which is a basic arrangement of diverse epicyclic gearings. And various interferences are analyzed, and mechanical efficiency is calculated in case that 2K-H I epicyclic gearing is used for a differential gear unit as the change of gear ratio, cutter pressure angle, addendum modification coefficient. As that results, trend of mechanical efficiency is investigated in the ranges of addendum modification coefficients which would not lead to interferences, and the optimal range of addendum modification coefficient which can generate the maximum mechanical efficiency are presented. In order to prove results of theoretical efficiency analysis, experimental studies are performed.

In this paper, the transmission error of a atar type Epicyclic Gear Train (EGT) has been studied. Dynamic analysis has been executes calculate the rotation angle of the input and output shafts at various loads. Transmission Error of EGT has been measured to compare with the analysis results. There are qualitative similarity between the experimental and analytical results.

In this paper, dynamic characteristics of an epicyclic gear train considering Coriolis effect have been studied. High speed transmissions such as in an aircraft engines will be strongly influenced by Coriolis effect. Gear meshes were modelled as springs and dampers with periodically varying mechanical constants with time. The loci of planet gear, sun gear. and carrier were analyzed. Maximum values of mesh forces between sun gear and planet gear(S/P) as well as between planet gear and ring gear(P/R) have been simulated as function of rotating speed.

In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of a star type epicyclic gear train have been analyzed. Nonlinear stiffness of a gear pair were obtained considering the bending and shear deformation, Hertz contact deformation, as well as tooth fillet deformation. Nonlinear stiffness coefficients and damping coefficients around the static equilibrium position were obtained by perturbation method. The loci of the planet gears and sun gear were estimated. Tooth meshing forces and bearing reaction forces were calculated. The effects of bearing clearance and oil viscosity on the gear behavior were also analyzed.

A hybrid finite element analysis was used to analyze the influence of ring gear rim thickness and spline number on the static properties of an epicyclic gear system with manufacturing errors. Both of these parameters affected the bearing force and critical stress. The effect of changes in the rim thickness on the load sharing between the gears depended on the type of manufacturing error. Ring flexibility improved the load sharing between planetary gears only in systems with planet tooth thickness or planet tangential errors; for other types of error, ring flexibility worsened the load sharing. To improve load sharing, rim thickness and spline number should be controlled within a specific range. The effect of the ring gear boundary condition was more apparent in a system with errors than in a normal system.

In this paper, the vibrational characteristics of a foot mount type gearbox for epicyclic gear train have been studied. The modal parameters and mode shapes of a gearbox have been computed using AN SYS code. Modal testing was carried out to verify the FEM analysis model. It has been shown that the analysis results are in good agreements with the experimental results. Harmonic analysis has been executed to verify the effect of thickness variance of gearbox housing on the modal response. Analyzing the calculated results, some guides for optimal vibration response has been deduced.

To improve load sharing, rim thickness and spline number should be controlled within a specific range. The minimum rim thickness limit should be determined considering not only the critical stress but also the load sharing. The effect of the ring gear boundary condition was more apparent in a system with errors than in a normal system.

Static analysis using hybrid finite element(FE) method has been applied to characterize the influence of position, runout and thickness errors of the sun, ring and planet on the bearing forces and critical tooth stress. Some guidelines for tolerance control to manage critical stress and bearing forces are deduced from the results. Carrier indexing error planet assembly and planet tooth thickness error are most critical to reduce planet bearing force and maximize load sharing as well as to reduce critical stresses. Sun and carrier bearing forces due to errors increase several times more than those of normal condition.

Among various gear system, planetary gear system has the best characteristics in high efficiency, excellent strength capacity, easy convertible speed control, and compact design aspect. Strength of gear is considered as the most important design factor. We have studied tooth form and the planetary gear system that have high reduction gear ratio is created by using the involute curve.
