Basic Gear
Basic Gear component
The Basic Gear component models two meshing gears without inertia, elasticity or backlash. Gear and bearing friction inertia may be included by attaching the Inertia and Bearing Friction components to either ‘flange_a’ or ‘flange_b’, respectively.
Kinematic Equation
Where is the gear ratio and is defined as:
Where is the number of teeth of the a-side gear and is the number of teeth of the b-side gear. Also, and are defined as
, ∈
Where and are the absolute rotation angles of flange_a and flange_b, respectively.
Torque Balance Equation (No Inertia)
Where and are the torques applied to flange_a and flange_b, respectively.
Also is the meshing loss torque and is defined as:
Where
=
When useSupport = true, the following equation is added to calculate the support reaction torque:
Power Loss:
The power loss () is calculated as:

One input (=1): Forward and backward efficiencies are the same:
Two inputs (=2): Forward and backward efficiencies are given independently:

The columns:
[ ( ( ) ( )]
Five options are available:
1 by 1 array: entered value is taken as the constant efficiency for forward and backward cases
( ) = ( ) =
1 by 2 array: first entered value is taken as the constant efficiency for forward case and the second for backward cases
1 by 3 array: first column is ignored and the second and third values are taken as constant efficiencies for forward and backward cases, respectively
n by 2 array: 2nd column is forward and backward efficiency
( ) = ( ) = ( )
n by 3 array:
2nd column is forward efficiency
( )
3rd column is backward efficiency
Note: The rows of the array are ordered according to , with the first row having the smallest ||

Defines the corresponding data columns used for forward efficiency () and backward efficiency ( )
Two options are available:
1 by 1 array:
Data column corresponding to the column number is used for both forward and backward efficiencies ()
1 by 2 array:
Data column corresponding to the first column number is used for forward efficiency ()
and data column corresponding to the second column number is used for backward efficiency ()

smoothness
Table points are linearly interpolated
Defines the smoothness of table interpolation. There are two options:
Table points are interpolated such that the first derivative is continuous
Note: The ratio () must be non-zero. Negative values are permissible. For () < 0, the Basic Gear component resembles the Ideal Gear (when ideal = true) and Lossy Gear (ideal = false).
