In this report, description of the first stage of some work on the
dynamic loading of gear teeth is given. The work has been performed
on a power circulating gear rig, using gears of 9 inch P. C. D., 4 D.P.,
and 1/2 inch face width. The rig is capable of running at pitch line
velocities up to 20,000 ft/min. with imposed leads of up to 3,000 lbs/
inch of face width. Particular reference is made to the instrumentation
problems which were encountered, and to the measurement of the shape
of the gears and their associated transmission errors. No attempt is
made at a theoretical analysis of the results obtained as this will be
the subject of a future report, along with the publication of more
results. |
