Abstract
The tooth surface friction is one of the main sources of gear vibration and noise. The current challenging problems in research of a helical gear pair dynamics considering tooth surface friction include the following: (1) Calculation accuracy of the tooth surface friction factor needs to be improved. (2) The meshing process of a helical gear pair has not been fully taken into account in a dynamic model. To solve these problems, a dynamic model of a helical gear pair considering tooth surface friction is proposed in this article. First, based on the tooth contact analysis and loaded tooth contact analysis of a helical gear pair, excitation of time-varying meshing stiffness, the sliding friction coefficient on tooth surface, and the arm of friction force are preliminarily calculated. Second, the dynamic model of a helical gear pair considering tooth surface friction is built and solved, in which the dynamic meshing force/speed/displacement is calculated. The sliding friction coefficient on tooth surface, arm of friction force, and dynamic equations form a coupled system. By decoupling calculation, the model system equations are solved. Finally, an example is presented to verify the proposed model.
