lubrication of industrial gears for power transmission applications.\u00a0 It is intended to serve as a general guideline and source of information about gear oils, their properties, and their general tribological behavior in gear contacts.\u00a0 Manufacturers and end-users are encouraged, however, to work with their lubricant suppliers to address specific concerns or special issues that may not be covered here (such as greases).<\/p>\n<p>\tThe equations provided herein allow the user to calculate specific oil film thickness and instantaneous contact (flash) temperature for gears in service.\u00a0 These two parameters are considered critical in defining areas of operation that may lead to unwanted surface distress.\u00a0 Surface distress may be scuffing (adhesive wear), fatigue (micropitting and macropitting), or excessive abrasive wear (scoring).\u00a0 Each of these forms of surface distress may be influenced by the lubricant; the calculations are offered to help assess the potential risk involved with a given lubricant choice.\u00a0 Flow charts are included as aids to using the equations.<\/p>\n<p>\tThis information sheet is a supplement to ANSI\/AGMA 2101-C95 and ANSI\/AGMA 2001-C95.\u00a0 It has been introduced as an aid to the gear manufacturing and user community.\u00a0 Accumulation of feedback data will serve to enhance future developments and improved methods to evaluate lubricant related surface distress.<\/p>\n<p>\tIt was clear from the work on the revision of standard ANSI\/AGMA 2001-C95 (ANSI\/AGMA 2101-C95, metric version) that supporting information regarding lubricant properties and general tribological understanding of contacting surfaces would aid in understanding of the standard and provide the user with more tools to make an informed decision about the performance of a geared system.\u00a0 One of the key parameters is the estimated film thickness.\u00a0 This is not a trivial calculation, but one that has significant impact on overall performance of the gear pair.\u00a0 It is considered in performance issues such as scuffing, wear, and surface fatigue.\u00a0 This information sheet provides sufficient information about key lubricant parameters to enable the user to generate reasonable estimates about surface distress based on the collective knowledge available.<\/p>\n<p>\tBlok [1] published his contact temperature equation in 1937.\u00a0 It went relatively unnoticed in the U.S.\u00a0 until Kelley [2] showed that Blok\u2019s method gave good correlation with Kelley\u2019s experimental data.\u00a0 Blok\u2019s equation requires an accurate coefficient of friction.\u00a0 Kelley found it necessary to couple the coefficient of friction to surface roughness of the gear teeth.\u00a0 Kelley recognized the importance of load sharing by multiple pairs of teeth and gear tooth tip relief, but he did not offer equations to account for those variables.<\/p>\n<p>\tDudley [3] modified Kelley\u2019s equation by adding derating factors for application, misalignment and dynamics.\u00a0 He emphasized the need for research on effects of tip relief, and recommended applying Blok\u2019s method to helical gears.<\/p>\n<p>\tIn 1958, Kelley [4] changed his surface roughness term slightly.<\/p>\n<p>\tBenedict and Kelley [5] published their equation for variable coefficient of friction derived from disc tests.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe AGMA Aerospace Committee began investigating scuffing in 1960, and Lemanski [6] published results of a computer analysis that contains data for 90 spur and helical gearsets, and formed the terms for AGMA 217.01 [7], which was published in 1965.\u00a0 It used Dudley\u2019s modified Blok\/Kelley equation and included factors accounting for load sharing and tip relief.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe SCORING+ computer program [8] was released in 1985.\u00a0 It incorporated all advancements made by Blok, Kelley, Dudley and AGMA 217.01.\u00a0 In addition, it added several improvements including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>\t\tHelical gears were analyzed by resolving the load in the normal plane and distributing the normal load over the minimum length of the contact lines.\u00a0 The semi-width of the Hertzian contact band was calculated based on the normal relative radius of curvature;<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>\t\tDerating factors for application, misalignment and dynamics were explicit input data;<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>\t\tOptions for coefficient of friction were part of input data, including a constant 0.06 (as prescribed by Kelley and AGMA 217.01), a constant under user control, and a variable coefficient based on the Benedict and Kelley equation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\tSCORING+ and AGMA 217.01 both use the same value for the thermal contact coefficient of BM = 16.5  N\/[mm\u00b7s0.5\u00b7K], and they calculate the same contact temperature for spur gears if all derating factors are set to unity.<\/p>\n<p>\tAnnex A of ANSI\/AGMA 2101-C95 and ANSI\/AGMA 2001-C95 was based on SCORING+ and included methods for predicting risk of scuffing based on contact temperature and risk of wear based on specific film thickness.<\/p>\n<p>\tThis information sheet expands the information in annex A of ANSI\/AGMA 2101-C95 and ANSI\/AGMA 2001-C95 to include many aspects of gear tribology.<\/p>\n<p>\n<u><strong>FOREWORD<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>\t[The foreword,

applications.\u00a0 It is intended that this document serve as a general guideline and source of information about conventional lubricants, their properties, and their general tribological behavior in gear contacts.\u00a0 This information sheet was developed to supplement ANSI\/AGMA Standards 2101-C95 and 2001-C95.\u00a0 It has been introduced as an aid to the gear manufacturing and user community.\u00a0 Accumulation of feedback data will serve to enhance future developments and improved methods to evaluate lubricant related wear risks.<\/p>\n<p>\tIt was clear from the work initiated on the revision of AGMA Standards 2001-C95 and 2101-C95 (metric version) that supporting information regarding lubricant properties and general tribological knowledge of contacting surfaces would aid in the understanding of these standards.\u00a0 The information would also provide the user with more tools to help make a more informed decision about the performance of a geared system.\u00a0 This information sheet provides sufficient information about the key lubricant parameters to enable the user to generate reasonable estimates about scuffing and wear based on the collective knowledge of theory available for these modes at this time.<\/p>\n<p>\tIn 1937 Harmon Blok published his theory about the relationship between contact temperature and scuffing.\u00a0 This went largely unnoticed in the U.S. until the early 1950\u2019s when Bruce Kelley showed that Blok\u2019s method and theories correlated well with experimental data he had generated on scuffing of gear teeth.\u00a0 The Blok flash temperature theory began to receive serious consideration as a predictor of scuffing in gears.\u00a0 The methodology and theories continued to evolve through the 1950\u2019s with notable contributions from Dudley, Kelley and Benedict in the areas of application rating factors, surface roughness effects and coefficient of friction.\u00a0 The 1960\u2019s saw the evolution of gear calculations and understanding continue with computer analysis and factors addressing load sharing and tip relief issues.\u00a0 The AGMA Aerospace Committee began using all the available information to produce high quality products and help meet its long-term goal of manned space flight.\u00a0 R. Errichello introduced the SCORING+ computer program in 1985, which included all of the advancements made by Blok, Kelley, Dudley and the Aerospace Committee to that time.\u00a0 It became the basis for annex A of ANSI\/AGMA 2101-C95 and 2001-C95 which helped predict the risk of scuffing and wear.\u00a0 In the 1990s, this annex formed the basis for AGMA\u2019s contribution to ISO 13989-1.<\/p>\n<p>\tJust as many others took the original Blok theories and expanded them, the Tribology Subcommittee of the Helical Gear Rating Committee has attempted to expand the original annex A of ANSI\/AGMA 2001-C95 and 2101-C95.\u00a0 Specifically, the subcommittee targeted the effect lubrication may have on gear surface distress.\u00a0 As discussions evolved, it became clear that this should be a standalone document which will hopefully serve many other gear types.\u00a0 This should be considered a work in progress as more is learned about the theories and understanding of the various parameters and how they affect the life of the gear.\u00a0 Some of these principles are also mentioned in ISO\/TR 13989-1.<\/p>\n<p>\tAGMA 925-A03 was approved by the AGMA Technical Division Executive Committee on March 13, 2003.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Effect of Lubrication on Gear Surface Distress<\/b><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Published By<\/td>\n<td>Publication Date<\/td>\n<td>Number of Pages<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/product-category\/publishers\/agma\/\"><b>AGMA<\/b><\/a><\/td>\n<td>2003<\/td>\n<td>59<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":486422,"template":"","meta":{"rank_math_lock_modified_date":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"product_cat":[2659],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-486412","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-agma","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"sold-individually","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/486412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/486422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=486412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=486412"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfstandards.shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=486412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
