An Experimental Investigation of the Torque Efficiency in Small Supr Gears

Article Preview

Abstract:

In present study, a gear transmission system was used to evaluate the effects of oil viscosity, speed, oil temperature as well as the applied load on torque efficiency. The experimental results reveal that the efficiency is increased with the increasing oil temperature and/or applied load whether the multigrade or singlegrade oil was employed. Under a constant torgue, the power loss is increased with the increasing pitch line velocity. The above characteristic resulting from the use of high-viscosity oil yields the substantial variations. However, as the oil film thickness is quite small, the viscosity speed, oil temperature and applied load produces the limited effect on torque efficiency, It indicate that EP additives create an opposite effect on torque efficiency at poor lubrication.
