Analysis and optimization of whine noise in the front-end gear train

This paper focuses on the gear whine noise problem of this engine, analyses it from two aspects of excitation source and transmission path, and puts forward the corresponding optimization method in combination with the actual product, which mainly includes the enhancement of the intrinsic frequency of the engine assembly, the optimization of the gear macro-parameters and the optimization of the gear micro-parameters. The optimization scheme achieves the objectives of minimizing transmission error and optimizing gear contact surface pressure and improves the NVH performance of the gear while considering the reliability of the gear system. Finally, the feasibility of the optimization scheme is verified by engine noise bench test. The study's results offer valuable insights for the design of diesel engine front-end gear systems, providing an effective approach to address existing product issues and to guide the development of new products.
