Abstract

The results are presented of an experimental investigation carried out at Mansoura University Laboratories aimed at studying the effect of change of helix angle and lubricating oil on wear of a relatively new type of gearing of circular-arc tooth-profile. Eighteen pairs of gears of 6 DP, 91.5 mm pitch diameter and different helix angles were run in power circulating gear test rig at different speeds and transmitting different loads, and the gears were lubricated with oils of different viscosities. It was found that wear increases with increasing helix angle and decreases with increase of oil viscosity. Variations of amount of wear with all the test variables are presented.
