This paper presents work on the optimization method for spur gear design to minimize oil churning losses. Empirical model isused to study the oil churning losses; such model is validated using data available in literature. The oil churning losses appear if therotating components are partially submerged in an oil bath.In this paper, Gear dimension such as module, pitch diameter, face width and oilchurning power loss are optimized and compared with the experimental data in literature. The main objective function is to minimize oilchurning power loss and constraints are minimum centre distance, minimum gear modulus and minimum number of teeth, surfacecompressive stress and bending stress. A gear transmission problem is one of the most complex optimization problems because ofrelationship between different variables. Therefore researchers are now going to use Non-classical Techniques. Genetic Algorithm is one ofsuch techniques.
