There are three options for entering transmission component parameters to
calculate the transmission component Ratio, Efficiency, Inertia and Friction
Torque values. The applicability of these options change depending upon the
type of transmission component.
Table 112 - Calculate the Transmission Component Ratio
Parameters Description Page
Compute Using Inertia and Ratio
Directly enter the transmission component ratio and effective
inertia. This option is available for all transmission components.
193
Compute Using Pitch Circle Diameter
Compute the desired data (ratio and inertia values) by using the
pitch circle diameter. This option is not available for a coupling
transmission.
194
Compute Using Number of Teeth
Compute the desired data (ratio and inertia values) by using the
number of teeth. This option is not available for a coupling
transmission.
