ADOPTION OF OPTIMAL TEETH PARAMETERS OF GEROTOR PUMP

Abstract

Adoption of optimal teeth parameters for gerotor pumps is of great importance and it has a large influence on their operational characteristics. This is the reason why a lot of attention is directed towards their optimization. The working flow of a gerotor pump has been chosen as the topic of optimization in this paper. Taguchi method for ranking gearing parameters related to pump flow has been presented here. Based on teeth parameters influence rank, an optimization is performed by method of linear programming. As a result of optimization optimal teeth parameters are chosen.
