Abstract Details

2011, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Mechanical Engineering.
This thesis aims to develop a procedure for the design and analysis of plastic gears, which are sensitive to the operating temperature conditions. This thesis proposes analytical models to represent the influence of temperature by a change in the micro-geometry and macro-geometry parameters to be used in advanced gear analysis programs such as those for performing load distribution and transmission error predictions. The theoretical model assumes linear thermal expansion of the material of the gear and two approaches were successfully used to model them, one being a change in the module of the gear and other being to apply a pressure angle slope change to the tooth form. The Plastic Gear Program is created based on these methodologies and helps designers to compare the performance of the gear set at different temperature conditions. Case studies are shown to explain the effects of temperature, micro-geometry modifications as well as manufacturing tolerances on the gear set.
