Vibration Analysis of Gear Transmission System in Electric Vehicle

Abstract:

This paper presents a systematic research on the gear transmission system of the electric vehicle. An accurate 3-D model of the gear transmission system is established in UG (Unigraphics NX) using software Gearwizard, and then imported to ADAMS/View environment. Based on the contact force of ADAMS, the vibration at 3 different test points of the model are simulated. The simulation results seem to be in good accordance with the test results, which proved the validity of the gear transmission model. Finally, the influence of helix angle on vibration at 3 different test points are also researched. The results of the total analysis can be used further to optimize the gear transmission system of the electric vehicle.
