Agricultural Engineering > GATE 2026 > Planetary Gear Drive
A 2WD tractor has to develop 30 kN gross tractive force at the ground. Rolling radius of the rear-wheels is 0.73 m. Each rear-wheel is driven by a simple planetary final-drive in which sun gear (26 teeth) is input, ring gear (78 teeth) is fixed, and the carrier is bolted to rear-wheel hub. The sun-planet external mesh efficiency is 98.5%, while the planet-ring internal mesh efficiency is 99%. Losses upstream of the final-drive are neglected. The required sun-shaft input torque per rear-wheel (in kN.m) is ________. (Rounded off to two decimal places)

Correct : 3.74
