Thorough Design required for a Friction/Traction Drive for Power Transmission to a Centrifugal Compressor.
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
A Traction Drive is a form of power transmission like Gear Transmission without Gear Teeth.
Traction Drive is also called Friction Drive. In our company, we required to transmit power to a centrifugal compressor by using a Traction drive. Another name for traction Drive is toothless Planetary Gear also sometimes simply called a Toroidal. We required a thorough Design for our Traction Drive.
We require proper methods of dimensioning of Friction Drive, both for a general set of gears/compressor and for a set of gears/compressor with specific required dimensions and parameters.
First Requirement:
Methods of dimensioning of Friction Drive for a general set of gears/compressor
Set up suitable methods for dimensioning of planetary gears for centrifugal compressor application.
This can be done with a combination of Matlab calculations and/or other commercial software.
The aim should be to keep it at a general level, not focusing on one specific set of gears/compressor parameters.
Produce documentation of the calculation/dimensioning process.
Second Requirement:
Dimensioning and calculation of a specific gear for a centrifugal compressor.
Documentation of calculations as described in first requirement.
3D-modelling in suitable CAD software. Creo or Catia or other will work.
Manufacturing drawings for a prototype.
Gear and compressor parameters will be provided.
