Excessive surfacetemperature of gear teeth is the main cause of gluing failure of gear contactsurface. To investigate the gear heat distribution in meshing processand discuss the effect of thermal conduction on heat distribution,a finiteelement model of spur gear is presented in the paper which can representgeneral involute spur gears. And a simulation approach is use to calculategear heat distribution in meshing process. By comparing with theoreticalcalculation, the correctness of the simulation method is verified, and theheat distribution of spur gear under the condition of heat conduction isfurther analyzed. The difference between the calculation results with heatconduction and without heat conduction is compared. The research hascertain reference significance for dry gear hobbing and the same type ofthermal-structural coupling analysis.展开更多

The temperature field of welding was simulated firstly, then a thermal-structure coupling analysis was carried out, and at last the residual stress and deformation after welding were got. After that, the numerical experiment result was compared with physical experiment one. The comparative analysis shows that the numerical simulation fits well with physical experiment. On the basis of that, a three-dimensional numerical experiment of a thick spherical shell structure was carried out to get the changing rule of stress and deformation of a thick spherical shell structure during welding. The research is of great value to the prediction of residual deformation and high precision machining.展开更多

Based on the thermal analysis about the motorized spindle by finite element method （FEM）, the thermal deformations of the spindle system are calculated by the thermal structure coupling simulation, and the thermal deformations of the rotor and the bearing units are extracted to analyze the bearing stiffness changes so that the modal characteristics of the rotor can be simulated in different thermal state conditions. And then the rotor thermal deformation experiment and the modal experiment of spindle by exciting with hammer are performed. The result shows that the thermal state of the motorized spindle system has a significant influence on the natural frequency of the rotor, which can be carefully treated when a spindle system is designed.展开更多
