The numerical simulation on the lubrication of the complex gearbox was studied and an optimization for its injection lubrication system was carried out. Firstly, a pair of high speed gear test bench was built and related experiments were completed. The experimental results verified the correctness of the numerical simulation modeling method. Then the numerical model of the injection lubrication of the complex gear box was established, the simulation analysis was carried out. The results show that the overlong injection distance, the angle of the end face and the arrangement of the nozzle in the out of mesh side are not good for lubrication. And there is a trace in the center plane of the two meshing gear, along which the ejected oil will be under the least impact of the high speed airflow that driven by the rotating gears. When the nozzle axis is in the direction of the trace, the gear lubrication condition is the best.
