Summary

Introduction

Gear pumps are widely used in automotive, aerospace, and other fields. Gear pump development trends are moving in a number of directions, including highpressure applications, high rotational speed application, and pump miniaturization.[1]. The leakage modes for gear pumps are transverse leakage, radial leakage, and gear mesh leakage.[2] Leakage increases as the outlet pressure increases. Within the literature,[1,3,4,5,6] the leakage of gear pumps with involute tooth profiles has been investigated. As a result of the very small clearance between the tip of each tooth and the chamber, the model of radial leakage of involute gear pump is assumed to occur in planes that are parallel to the tip surface.[7,8] the involute tooth profile exhibits a trap-oil phenomenon. This eccentricity influences leakage and is caused by the variation of the rotor center
