Abstract
Tooth fracture and surface wear are the major failure causes in a gearing system. With increasing demand for high power density gear applications, the need of effective gear design becomes an important requirement to improve gear life. This article presents a method to enhance the load carrying capacity in bending and contact, as well as wear resistance to increase gear efficiency through asymmetric tooth. Asymmetric gear is the one whose pressure angles at pitch circle on drive and coast sides are different. In the present investigation, the load shared by a teeth pair, fillet and contact stresses, wear resistance, frictional power losses and the respective mechanical efficiencies have been determined for comparative performance assessment of symmetric and asymmetric spur gears.
