Abstract
As a core component of wind turbines, wind power gear speed increasers often work in harsh environments, so it is necessary to study the vibration characteristics of gear transmission systems. Taking a wind turbine gearbox high-speed stage helical gear transmission system as the research object, the dynamics model of multi-degree-of-freedom helical gear-rotor-bearing transmission system is established by the lumped parameter method and solved by Runge-Kutta method, taking into account the tooth side clearance of the gear, transmission error, eccentricity and support force of the nonlinear bearing. The effects of input torque, transmission error and tooth side clearance on the vibration characteristic response of the helical gear train were analyzed. The relationship between the trend of amplitude change in each direction of the gear and the trend of change in the major frequency components was analyzed under the conditions of changing internal and external excitation. The results show that torsional vibration dominates in the system. As the input torque increases, the vibration amplitude of the driving and driven gears decreases, and the frequency amplitude decreases significantly at multiple locations. Gear transmission errors and changes in tooth side clearance have significant effects on gear vibration amplitudes, but are sensitive only to the meshing frequency. The trend of gear vibration amplitude caused by the change of external excitation of the gear set is synchronized with the trend of main frequency amplitude in the corresponding direction, while the change of vibration amplitude caused by internal excitation is consistent with the trend of mesh frequency amplitude in the corresponding direction. The results of this paper can pave a certain foundation for the design and fault diagnosis of wind power gearbox transmission system.
