An epicyclic gear train consists of a sun wheel S, a stationary internal
gear E and three identical planet wheels P carried on a star- shaped
planet carrier C. The sizes of different toothed wheels are such that the
planet carrier C rotates at l/5th of the speed of the sun wheel S. The
minimum number of teeth on any wheel is 16. The driving torque on
the sun wheel is 100 N-m. Determine : l. number of teeth on different
wheels of the train, and 2. torque necessary to keep the internal gear

An epicyclic gear train, as shown in Fig. 13.37, has a sun wheel S of 30
teeth and two planet wheels P-P of 50 teeth. The planet wheels mesh
with the intemal teeth of a fixed annulus A. The driving shaft carrying
the sun wheel, transmits 4 kW at 300 r.p.m. The driven shaft is
