Abstract

This paper presents a study on effects of carburized parts on residual stresses of case-hardened thin-rimmed spur gears with asymmetric web arrangements. A heat conduction analysis and an elastic-plastic stress analysis during the case-hardening process of thin-rimmed spur gears with asymmetric web arrangements were carried out of various case-hardening conditions by the three-dimensional finite-element method (3D-FEM), and then residual stresses were obtained. The effects of the case depth, the carburized parts (tooth surface, gear-side, rim, web surface), the web structure, the rim thickness on the residual stress were determined.
