The Effect of Tooth Wear on the Dynamic Transmission Error of Helical Gears with Smaller Number of Pinion Teeth

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper presents an analytical investigation of the effect of the tooth wear on the dynamic transmission error of helical gear pairs with small number of pinion teeth. Firstly, the dynamic analysis is conducted to investigate only the effect of the time-varying mesh stiffness on the variation of dynamic transmission error along the line of action. Then, the tooth wear effect on the dynamics of helical gear with small number of pinion teeth is being researched. In the analysis, instantaneous dynamic contact analysis is used in wear depth calculations. A comparative study was performed to investigate the relation between total contact ratio, mesh stiffness and dynamic transmission error of helical gear pairs with small number of teeth.
