HEAT GENERATED IN HIGH POWER REDUCTION GEARING.

Abstract

The report discusses equations describing the heat generated in gearing by tooth friction, viscous shear, windage and oil churning are developed, and the effects of various design and operating parameters are evaluated. The effect of gear heat calculations and gear tooth optimization on the weight of large geared-fan aircraft engines is estimated. (Author)
