Analysis On Bending Stress Of Helical Gear

Abstract

Helical gears are used to transmit energy between parallel axes. They are made to transmit pressure evenly throughout the entire tooth. Helical gears operate smoother and quieter than other gears due to their tooth inclination and can transmit heavy loads efficiently. Helical gears are commonly employed in industry when power transmissions under heavy loads are required. This study used Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to determine how loads are distributed in helical gear. The helical gear, which is made of aluminum alloy and structural steel, was simulated for the process parameters derived from design considerations, and the bending stress distribution was calculated using ANSYS software. Solidworks, strong and current solid modeling software, is used to create three dimensional solid models for varying face widths, and ANSYS for a finite element analysis. In analytical research, the Lewis stress formula is employed. After that, the AGMA and FEA findings are compared.
