CALCULATION FOR THERMAL RATING OF GEAR BOX

Motor power = 1000 KW


Motor RPM = 1500 RPM

Power Demand = 950 KW


Reduction ratio = 25

Gear box rating :


PN = PE X f f = service factor for gear box rating

From power table, select gear box size with calculated value of P N

Check for heating


fw = (from thermal service factor)

PE = PG X f w Value of fw should be taken from thermal service factor table with different type of cooling.

PE must be greater than the power demand.

SELECTION OF GEAR COUPLING

Min. rating required (KW / RPM) = (Selected motor KW X 1.5) / Actual pulley RPM

Select suitable gear coupling from catalogue.


able with different type of cooling.
