Key Parameters and Experimental Study of High-Speed Rotating Meshing Gear Injection Lubrication Based on Moving Particle Semi-Implicit Method

Abstract

With the rapid development of China’s manufacturing industry, products are changing toward better energy efficiency and precision. Reducing transmission energy waste, enhancing transmission lubrication, and increasing transmission efficiency have all become critical concerns. The moving particle semi-implicit particle approach is utilized in this study to create a high-speed rotating meshing gear lubrication model and conduct a simulation analysis of transmission gears by studying the influence law of sensitive parameter injection diameter on lubrication. The oil distribution state on the gear surface, the gear tooth surface heat dissipation effect, and the degree of gear operating stability are all calculated by computing the gear surface fluid coverage and convective heat transfer coefficient. According to the numerical simulation results, increasing the liquid injection diameter can greatly enhance fluid coverage and convective heat transfer coefficient on the gear surface, hence improving lubrication. However, when the injection diameter reaches a critical value, the contact area between the liquid and the gear is maximized, and additional increases in the injection diameter will not improve the lubricating effect. Experiments have revealed that the liquid injection diameter is the most critical factor influencing gears. The gear torque dramatically increases as the liquid injection diameter increases. According to a rigorous analysis, the gear lubrication effect is optimal when the liquid injection diameter is 2.0 mm. This provides a theoretical foundation for transmission system lubrication design.
