Research on Torsional Vibration of Gear-Shafting System Based on an Extended Lumped Parameter Model
In this paper, gear-shafting system dynamics theory has been introduced into the torsional vibration calculation of the marine propulsion shaft and the vibration equations of a marine gear-shafting system were established using the lumped parameter model by taking the gear-shafting system in marine propulsion shaft as the research object. In order to solve the problem of vibration equation, dynamic simulation has been done in MATLAB software, in which the natural frequency of the system has been obtained from the simulation curve by changing the input frequency, meanwhile, the conclusion that the gears pair comprehensive meshing error is independent of the system natural frequency has been achieved. Thus, the analysis method presented in this work is available for the torsional vibration calculation of the marine gear-shafting system.
