Numerical and experimental investigation of splashing oil flow in a hypoid gearbox

The oil distribution and churning loss are the main concerns in the design of a lubrication system for a gear transmission. This article describes a numerical method of simulating the splashing oil flow in a hypoid gearbox, obtaining the oil distribution, and calculating the churning loss. A three-d...
