Experimental Transfer Path Analysis of Gear Whine

Conventionally, the effort of gear whine reduction has focused on minimizing the transmission error generated in automobile transmission. In mean time, as demands on gear whine reduction increased, the need of controlling noise transfer path was arisen because transmission error turns into interior noise in those paths [1-2]. In this paper, we provide experimental technologies to clarify the noise transfer path which dominants high frequency gear whine from experimental point of view.
