Converting power transmission (Theory)

Gearbox no load 

Torque (Motor >> Drive)1.951.7921.6331.5281.4751.381.317

Torque (Motor << Drive)1.952.142.4252.712.93.3753.85

 
The torque sensor adds 1 to the measurements, without adding real resistance. Let’s check the results of the force conversion. 
 
Let’s calculate the ratio 1:1, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. 
1.95-1=0.95 We got a gearbox efficiency of 95% 
Let’s calculate the ratio 3:1, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. And divide by the gearbox ratio. 
3.85-1=2.85 2.85/3=0.95 We got a gearbox efficiency of 95% 
Let’s calculate the ratio 1:3, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. And multiply by the gearbox ratio. 
1.317-1=0.317 0.317*3=0.951 We got a gearbox efficiency of 95% 
The no-load gearbox converts power as expected.

Torque (Motor >> Drive)2.91.63
Gearbox1:13:1

Let’s calculate the ratio 1:1, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. Subtract torque 1 of the small generator 
2.9-1=1.9 1.9-1=0.9 We got a gearbox efficiency of 90% 
Let’s calculate the ratio 3:1, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. Divide by gearbox ratio. Subtract torque 1 of the small generator 
6.7-1=5.7 5.7/3=1.9 1.9-1=0.9 We got a gearbox efficiency of 90% 
Let’s calculate the ratio 1:3, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. Multiply by the gearbox ratio. Subtract torque 1 of the small generator 
1.633-1=0.633 0.633*3=1.899 1.9-1=0.9 We got a gearbox efficiency of 90% 
All right

3.3676.625:28.3832.1416.93
2.891.353:18.3831.9516.95

 
The final speed of the generator is approximately the same at different gearbox ratios. 3:1 efficiency even slightly higher than 1:1. Let’s count. 
 
RPS of the motor at a ratio of 1:1 8.36 divided by a gearbox ratio of 3:1 
8.36/3=2.78 A little less than it turned out during testing 
 
Torque at a ratio of 1:1 32.45, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. And multiplied by a gearbox ratio of 3:1 
32.45-1=31.45 31.45*3=94.35 Resistance is greater than it turned out during testing 
 
And although the efficiency of the gearbox turned out to be more than 100%, the difference is subtle, but it is a bug and needs to be corrected.

The final speed of the generator is very different for different gear ratios of the gearbox. Efficiency 3: 1 is several times lower than 1: 1. Let’s count. 
 
RPS of the motor at a ratio of 1:1 17.33 divided by a gearbox ratio of 3:1 
17.33/3=5.78 The final speed should be more than double. 
 
Torque at a ratio of 1:1 40.45, subtract 1 unit added by the torque sensor. And multiplied by a gearbox ratio of 3:1 
40.45-1=39.45 39.45*3=118.35 The load should be more than the testing showed. 
 
The results turned out to be strange, something is definitely missing here. Perhaps the torque that I still can’t catch somehow affects.
