Bevel gear (original) (raw)

The gears are used to transmit the motion and power from one shaft to another shaft by physical contact between gear teeth. The bevel gear is used to transmit motion and power between the axis of intersection and the non-intersecting axis. Gears are generally subjected to loads due to these loads, tooth bending stress and contact stress will be developed on the gear tooth. Much research on the action of the gear has confirmed that contact stresses also influence the formation of pits on the surface of the tooth. Gear tooth is the most important element in a gear system and has been focused on the current study. An analysis has been carried out for the three different types of materials used to make the bevel gear. The failure of gears due to contact stress is high compared to bending stress. Stress analysis has been a key area of research to minimize failure of the gear and optimize the design. The study of contact stress developed between the mating gears are very important for the gear design. The current goal is that the finite element analysis of the bevel gear is performed to determine the maximum contact stress by ABAQUS as the solver and also the theoretical maximum contact stress is calculated by the Hertz equation. In this study finite element analysis results were validated with theoretical results.
