Force on gear tooth calculation based on HP and RPM
I've recently been learning about gear design. I can calculate the strength of my gear tooth using formula: F(max)=((Bending strength of material (N/mm2) * gear width (mm) * Lewis Factor)/diametral pitch (mm))*Barth speed factor where bending strength = tensile strength (N/mm2)/3 but I need...- gcarmich
