Key Technologies Research of Helicopter Transmissions

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the recent years, there has been significant interest in the new developments and improvements of the helicopter transmission systems. The main goal of the helicopter transmission research is the reduction of overall gear train weight while maintaining the efficiency and reliability. This paper reviews some significant technical developments in the component level and in the system configuration level. In addition, comprehensive test and verification technology of helicopter transmission system is discussed.
