The results suggest that gearlubrication effects bear close relations to a dimensionless parameter D which is syntheticallydetermined by gearing rotational speed, load, material, dimension and lubricant viscosity. When D<=8, the gear fatigue life increases as the lubricant viscosity is increased; When D>8, however, thelife decreases with the viscosity addition, which is in marked contrast to the lubrication factorZ_L recommended by the International Standard for Computing Cylindrical Gear Strength. At the end, aset of formulae for calculating gear lubrication factors suitable for different working conditionsare advanced.展开更多

An iterative scheme, which is called the weighted average method here, is used to deal with the iterative convergence of the three dimensional elastohydrodynamic lubrication equations. The scheme is successfully employed in overcoming the difficulty of the convergence at high eccentricity ratios. Inthis work, the influence of flow indices and bearing materials on the performance parameters of elastohydrodynamic lubrication for heavily-loaded finite journal bearings in non-Newtonian fluid are investigated.展开更多
