When designing electromechanical transmissions (EMT) for lightly armored caterpillar and wheeled vehicles (LACWV), there is often a problem that the coefficient of adaptability of the traction motor (TM) at the minimum design power is not sufficient to meet the requirements for the power range of the transmission. In the literature, several ways have been worked out to solve this problem, however, there was not found a single algorithm allowing to formalize and step by step pass the process of choosing the most rational structure of the EMT. The purposeof the proposed work is the formation of scientifically based methodology for evaluating the possibility of using single-stage gearboxes in EMT for LACWV and calculation of the required TM power of the selected type for single- or two-stage mechanical gearboxes. Methodology. To carry out the research, the theory of motion of caterpillar and wheeled vehicles was used. Result. A formalized methodology for determining the required mechanical power of the electric drive for the LACWV is proposed, depending on the power capabilities of the motor-generator set, the torque characteristics of the selected TM and the number of stages in the mechanical gearboxes. Scientific novelty. For the first time, a formalized connection has been established between the tactical and technical requirements for LACWV, the characteristics of the selected TM, the structure and parameters of the mechanical gearboxes. Practical value. The toolkit for the engineering and design personnel developing the EMT for the LACWV was obtained. Work with the algorithm is illustrated by the example of power selection and gear ratios of mechanical gearboxes for the multi-purpose lightly armored caterpillar tractor MT-LB.
