  1. 1. Gear Modifications for Optimal Load Distribution

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Raghunath Adimoolam Ganesan; [2023]
    Keywords : Lead correction; Profile correction; Even load distribution; Thermal distortion.; helixkorrigering; profilkorrigering; jämn belastningsfördelning; termisk distorsion.;

    Abstract : In the early days of gear manufacturing, engineers aimed to produce teeth as close to the theoretical shape as possible. As machinery advanced and demand for high-speed, high-torque, and quieter transmissions grew, optimizing gear teeth became increasingly important [1]. READ MORE

  2. 2. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evaluation of MPC and PI control on a Tribometer : Design and comparison of control methods for a Pin-on-Disc Tribometer

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ehab Ziad Raheem; Tore Malmström; [2023]
    Keywords : Control Theory; MPC; PI; PI-Cascade; Tribometer; Pin-on-Disc; Reglersystem; MPC; PI; PI-Kaskadreglering; Tribometer; Stift-På-Skiva;

    Abstract : This thesis compares Model Predictive Control (MPC) and Proportional-Integral (PI) control in a pin-on-disc tribometer. The tribometer consists of a geared Direct Current (DC) motor driving a flywheel and a voice coil actuating a pin onto the surface of the flywheel. READ MORE

  4. 4. TEMPERATURE MODELLING OF GEAR MESH

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ahsan Kadevalappil Ajilan; [2023]
    Keywords : Helical gear; Power loss; MATLAB; ANSYS; Spiralväxel; Strömförlust; MATLAB; ANSYS;

    Abstract : Temperature control is an essential aspect of gear design. Continuous research is going on to improve the efficiency of gear systems. Power losses or energy losses in these systems typically manifest themselves as increased temperatures and thus reducing the lifetime and overall performance of the system. READ MORE

  5. 5. Controller Design for a Gearbox Oil ConditioningTestbed Through Data-Driven Modeling

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Charles Brinkley IV; Chieh-Ju Wu; [2022]
    Keywords : Gearbox; oil conditioning system; system identification; data-driven modeling; pole placement; PID; Växellåda; oljekonditioneringssystem; systemidentifiering; datadriven modellering; polplacerings; PID;

    Abstract : With the exponential development of more sustainable automotive powertrains, new gearbox technologies must also be created and tested extensively. Scania employs dynamometer testbeds to conduct such tests, but this plethora of new and rapidly developed gearboxes pose many problems for testbed technicians. READ MORE
