A dynamic model as a tool for design and optimization of propulsion systems of transport means

Grzegorz Peruń

Abstract
Designing power transmission systems is a complex and often time-consuming problem. In this task, various computational tools make it possible to speed up the process and verify a great many different solutions before the final one is developed. It is widely possible today to conduct computer simulations of the operation of various devices before the first physical prototype is built. The article presents an example of a dynamic model of power transmission systems, which has been developed to support work aimed at designing new and optimizing existing systems of that type, as well as to help diagnose them by designing diagnostic algorithms sensitive to early stages of damage development. The paper also presents sample results of tests conducted with the model, used at the gear design stage. In the presented model, the main goal is to reproduce the phenomena occurring in gears as well as possible, using numerous experiments in this direction featured in the literature. Many already historical models present different ways of modeling, but they often made significant simplifications, required by the limitations of the nature of computational capabilities. Differences also result from the purpose of the models being developed, and the analysis of these different ways of doing things makes it possible to choose the most appropriate approach.
