Abstract
The driving speed and related centrifugal effects are major in determining mesh stiffness during the gear meshing process. However, many researchers commonly ignore these factors. In this work, an original computational algorithm (OCA) based on Euler beam theory that considers the centrifugal effect is presented for calculating the velocity-dependent time-varying mesh stiffness (VMS) of spur gears. Comparisons with the findings of finite element analysis (FEA) are used to verify the accuracy of the OCA. This study employs driving speed as the control parameter and analyzes the VMS in both the time and frequency domains. Furthermore, it investigates the effects of centrifugal force on the VMS across different materials. The results show that the driving speed affects both the VMS and the natural frequencies of gear pairs. It is noteworthy that while higher-density materials have the opposite effect, materials with a high elastic modulus tend to lessen the effect of driving speed on VMS. Further investigation into the noise and vibrations in gears caused by centrifugal effects can be theoretically supported by the findings presented in this work.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Sound and Vibration (JSV) is an independent journal devoted to the prompt publication of original papers, both theoretical and experimental, that provide new information on any aspect of sound or vibration. There is an emphasis on fundamental work that has potential for practical application.
JSV was founded and operates on the premise that the subject of sound and vibration requires a journal that publishes papers of a high technical standard across the various subdisciplines, thus facilitating awareness of techniques and discoveries in one area that may be applicable in others.
