Abstract Tooth root crack is one of the most common failures in the gearbox which can lead to the failure of the whole transmission system. However, it is difficult to simulate the gear fault impact in practical work. To solve this problem and to study the relationship between tooth crack propagation and vibration features, various dynamic models have been built. However, the crack propagation path and the bearings are simplified in most of the models, which leads to obvious deviation in the dynamic response. In this paper, a rigid-flexible coupled model of a single-stage planetary gearbox in normal and fault conditions are built by ADAMS software. The crack propagation path is considered a parabolic curve and the thickness of the crack decreases along the path. As a reference, a rigid-body model has also been built to prove that the rigid-flexible coupled model can be more accurate and suitable for analyzing the response of the planetary gearbox with fault. Afterward, the effects of gear tooth root crack size on the gear dynamics are simulated and the corresponding changes in statistical indicators are investigated. By studying the torsional vibration signal of the planetary gearbox with varying severity of the damage, the fault characteristics and damage evolution mechanics can be analyzed and by comparing the fault sensitivity of these indicators, the critical and sensitive fault indicators are screened out.

Planetary gears are widely used in the industry due to their advantages of compactness, high power-to-weight ratios, high efficiency, and so on. However, planetary gears such as that in wind turbine transmissions always operate under dynamic conditions with internal and external load fluctuations, which accelerate the occurrence of gear failures, such as tooth crack, pitting, spalling, wear, scoring, scuffing, etc. As one of these failure modes, gear tooth crack at the tooth root due to tooth bending fatigue or excessive load is investigated; how it influences the dynamic features of planetary gear system is studied. The applied tooth root crack model can simulate the propagation process of the crack along tooth width and crack depth. With this approach, the mesh stiffness of gear pairs in mesh is obtained and incorporated into a planetary gear dynamic model to investigate the effects of the tooth root crack on the planetary gear dynamic responses. Tooth root cracks on the sun gear and on the planet gear are considered, respectively, with different crack sizes and inclination angles. Finally, analysis regarding the influence of tooth root crack on the dynamic responses of the planetary gear system is performed in time and frequency domains, respectively. Moreover, the differences in the dynamic features of the planetary gear between the cases that tooth root crack on the sun gear and on the planet gear are found.
