Abstract
This paper describes the effect of traction oil on the power loss of a spur gear drive. In this study, we measured the power loss of the spur gear drive using several traction oils. We separated the power loss into gear friction loss and oil churning loss. Furthermore, we measured the surface temperature on the gear tooth by the dynamic thermocouple method, and observed the lubrication condition between meshing teeth by the electrical resistance method. Then, we investigated the relationships among the power loss of the gear drive lubricated with the traction oil, the gear tooth surface temperature, and the lubrication condition.
