... of a helical gear pair under starved lubrication. Design/methodology/approach A starved thermal-elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model is proposed to evaluate the tribological properties of a helical gear pair. The numerical result has been validated against the published simulation data. Based...

.... Design/methodology/approach Real measured roughness is input to a finite line contact mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication model developed for helical gear pairs. Their tribological performances are compared. The variation throughout one meshing period is analyzed. The influence of the root mean square...

...Yong Yang; Wenguang Li; Jiaxu Wang; Qinghua Zhou Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the tribological performance of helical gear pairs with consideration of the properties of non-Newtonian lubricant and the real three-dimensional (3D) topography of tooth flanks. Design...
