Abstract:Friction losses and scuffing failures are interesting research topics for worm gears. One of the factors leading to scuffing is the heat generated in the contact of gear teeth. The contact geometry of worm gears is complex, leading to high friction between contact surfaces. High friction between contact surfaces during operation generates heat friction that causes the occurrence of scuffing, which in turn determines the scuffing load capacity. To analyse the thermal characteristics of a worm-gear pair and the … Show more
