Optimization of Face-Hobbed Spiral Bevel Gears to Improve EHD Lubrication
In this study, an optimization methodology is presented to systematically define optimal tooth modifications introduced by head-cutter geometry and machine tool settings to simultaneously maximize the EHD load carrying capacity of the oil film and to minimize power losses in the oil film of facehobbed spiral bevel gears. The presented optimization procedure relies heavily on the EHD lubrication...
متن کاملAnalysis of Mixed Lubrication Effects in Simulated Gear Tooth Contacts
The paper presents results obtained using a transient analysis technique for point contact elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems based on a formulation that couples the elastic and hydrodynamic equations. Results are presented for transverse ground surfaces in elliptical point contact that show severe film thinning and asperity contact at the transverse limits of the contact area. This ...
متن کاملSoft lubrication: The elastohydrodynamics of nonconforming and conforming contacts
We study the lubrication of fluid-immersed soft interfaces and show that elastic deformation couples tangential and normal forces and thus generates lift. We consider materials that deform easily, due to either geometry e.g., a shell or constitutive properties e.g., a gel or a rubber , so that the effects of pressure and temperature on the fluid properties may be neglected. Four different syste...
متن کاملElastohydrodynamic Grease Lubrication Theory and Numerical Solution in Line Contacts
In this paper, film thickness and pressure distribution of EHL in line contacts for four kinds of greases and one type of oil are calculated under a series of rolling velocities by wing an inverse solution method. The Herschel-Bulkley model is wed for the rheological characteristics of the grease. Based on the theoretical analysis and numerical calculation, the following influences on film thic...
متن کاملThe lubrication performance of the ceramic-on-ceramic hip implant under starved conditions
Lubrication plays an important role in the clinical performance of the ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) hip implant in terms of reducing wear and avoiding squeaking. All the previous lubrication analyses of CoC hip implants assumed that synovial fluid was sufficiently supplied to the contact area. The aim of this study was to investigate the lubrication performance of the CoC hip implant under starved ...
