Reply To: Gear tooth deformation due to rotational velocity

[Sudhakara G]

 

Hi experts,

Could you please clarify the statement mentioned by you earlier i.e., “If you give both cylindrical supports, the model won’t be in static equilibrium”. 

The left end of the rotor shaft is coupled to other devices like motor. As mentioned earlier, the rotor is supported by journal bearings. As we are not able to define the bearing properties for journal bearing, we have used cylindrical supports on both ends.

 

 

 

Whether the methodology followed for estimating the tooth deformation is correct or not?

Do I need to define the journal bearing properties to estimate the tooth deformation correctly?

Please clarify.

Regards,

Sudhakara
