Untersuchungen zur Tauchschmierung schnellaufender Kegelradgetriebe

In an experimental study the performance of flood lubrication in bevel gear boxes has been characterized. At a peripheral velocity of 20-60 m/s the dependence of frictional loss, oil and gear temperatures on the operation parameters specific load, dripping depth, oil additices and oil supply conditions have been investigated. It is demonstrated that flood lubrication of bevel gears represents already at low dipping depth a lubrication method reliable in service as long as a balanced heat flow is maintained by forced cooling. A limiting peripheral velocity has not been detected in this study.
