Jet Engine Component (11): CVT(CSD), Toroidal type

Açıklama

There are various types of CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission), but there are the following types of friction type. (1) Belt type using V-groove pulley ... There are various belts such as metal belts and chains. (2) Toroidal type that uses the donut-shaped roller Currently, the method of (1) is widely used in automobiles. (2) has been used for several car models, but it seems that it has ended. These types of CVT are not used in the aero engine itself. However, I knew that the Toroidal CVT of (2) is used for an AC generator (115V, 400Hz) called IDG (Integrated Drive Generator), which is an accessory for the aircraft that is attached to the gearbox. Also it is called CSD (Constant Speed Drive). I wanted to know the basic structure and made a simple model. A.
