Given a typical hypoid gear rear axle for a passenger vehicle, a pinion rotational speed, and basic gear dimensions, how do I calculate the tooth-to-tooth relative velocity of a pair of mating points on the teeth?
Rumor has it that the standard oil filter bypass valve opens due to excessive filter backpressure way before you change your oil. This doesn't make much sense to me. Sure, it is possible, but surely it doesn't happen. Tell me it ain't so!
Where would I find the differential gear design parameters useful in calculating the side gear separating forces? I am looking for such values as 'theta,' 'alpha,' and Rg for use in the equation F = T x tan (theta) x sin (alpha) / Rg
Would appreciate references for equations to calculate the differential side gear separating forces in limited slip differentials.
Would also love location of any artwork, diagrams, etc. for such devices to provide visuals for project review.
Thanks in advance.
I need to calculate the horsepower and torque required to move a given load at a given speed. I've spec'd the problem as a steady-state calculation---xxx pounds at yyy mph, instead of one with acceleration from a dead stop.
I need some resource tips for (1)real world Cd for closed box long...
