Abstract
As key factor of numerical simulation for gear strength, namely determination of effective loads between meshing teeth profiles, their numerical calculation principles of static and dynamic finite element methods are analyzed according to the loads on gear teeth. The static analysis of gear strength can be classified to effective statics and static contact analysis, and the numerical simulation method for face distribution as the rule of Hertz contact is advanced. The differences between static and dynamic contact and their influences in results are researched. Compared with the empirical formulas, the analytical results about bearing capacity of gear drive under different effective loads show: (1) As the sequence of concentrated force, linear distribution force, face distribution force as the rule of Hertz contact, static contact analysis, the accuracy and reliability of calculating results under different effective loads are improved, especially the results from face distribution and static contact being very close. (2) Dynamic contact analysis can be used to simulated the effect well. The above studies could be referenced to calculation in bearing capacity of gear drive.
