ANALYSIS OF TWO STAGE BEVEL GEAR BOX FOR THE REDUCTION IN INPUT SHAFT BEARING TEMPERATURE - A REVIW

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

In today’s era, efficiency of any machine is very crucial. Gearbox is a very important component for transmission of power from one shaft to another having short distance between centers. If efficiency of gearbox is less, then it affect efficiency of whole system. So it is required to improve efficiency of gearbox. In this gearbox, it has been observed that temperature at input side shaft bearing is higher than permissible limit. This paper involves discussion of analytical approach and simulation approach for reduction in bearing temperature. ANSYS CFX is very useful soft ware package to simulate fluid condition and temperature distribution is carried out by steady state thermal analysis. Boundary conditions and meshing methods used for simulation of temperature are discussed in this paper.
