calculate_gear_box_efficiency

calculate_gear_box_efficiency(gear_box_power_out, gear_box_speed_in, gear_box_torque, gear_box_torque_in, min_engine_on_speed)[source]

Calculates the gear box efficiency [N*m].

Parameters:
  • gear_box_power_out (float) – Power at wheels [kW].
  • gear_box_speed_in (float) – Engine speed [RPM].
  • gear_box_torque (float) – Torque gear_box [N*m].
  • gear_box_torque_in (float) – Torque required [N*m].
  • min_engine_on_speed (float) – Minimum engine speed to consider the engine to be on [RPM].
Returns:

Gear box efficiency [-].
Return type:

float
