DESIGN OF TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS


ME2601 3 0 0 3
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
 To gain knowledge on the principles and procedure for the design of Mechanical power
Transmission components.
 To understand the standard procedure available for Design of Transmission of Mechanical
elements
 To learn to use standard data and catalogues (Use of P S G Design Data Book permitted)
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The course covers topics such as power transmission, gear design, belt and chain drives, coupling
design, and shaft design, emphasizing the selection of appropriate components based on
application requirements. Students learn to analyze torque, speed, load, and other factors to
design reliable, efficient, and durable transmission systems for different types of machinery and
equipment.
PREREQUISITES
 Basic understanding of mechanics, materials science, and engineering design principles
 Familiarity with mathematics (calculus, trigonometry, and algebra) for calculations related
to torque, speed, load, and gear ratios
 Knowledge of CAD software tools for 3D modeling, assembly design, and simulations
(though this may be taught as part of the course)
