Numerical analysis model for the instantaneous grinding temperature of face gears with a worm grinding wheel by WANG Chao, GUO Hui, RUAN Yuhang, RAN Xiaoping, ZHAO Ning

“…Finally, the proposed model’s computational accuracy was validated through the test of the grinding temperature.ResultsThe analysis results demonstrate that the instantaneous grinding temperature significantly increases from the inner diameter to the outer diameter at a fixed tooth height position. Moreover, at a constant tooth width position, the temperature gradually rises from the tooth tip to the tooth root, albeit with a small magnitude of variation. …”
