Currently in industries, high-speed turbo machineries such as compressors a
nd steam or gas turbines are required to have increased power capacities. D
ue to this, a large gear size is required which leads to nonuniform tempera
ture distribution. As the result of nonuniform temperature distribution, no
nuniform thermal distortion occurs. Change in load distribution due to this
thermal distortion is considered to be closely related to scoring and pitt
ing failures. In order to ensure reliability of high-speed gear units, it i
s necessary to improve the following techniques. (1) The method of predicti
ng the temperature rise of gears and thermal distortion. ( 2) Tooth correct
ion against thermal distortion. In this paper, a three-dimensional model fo
r calculating the temperature of teeth surfaces and blanks is presented. Th
is model includes the effects of convective cooling bg lubricating oil and
the change ill load distribution due ii mechanical deformation. The calcula
ted results of gear teeth temperature and bending stress are in reasonable
agreement with the experimental results. It is confirmed that the analytica
l method is practical and useful.
