Abstract

In this paper the contact stress over the lower addendum of the spur gear and shrear stresses by using
the software tools like Creo and ANSYS are used to design and analysis. The spur gear is sketched and modeled in
ANSYS design modular and the contact stress analysis is done in mechanical ANSYS multi-physics. In this, we found
the contact stress analysis of EN8 spur gears by theoretical method using Hertz equations and by finite element
analysis using FEA software ANSYS 15.0 workbench. The ANSYS software avoids monotonous calculations
presumably impending in the design procedure and uses ultimate numerical tool to approximate the solution of the
partial differential equations associated with continuity, momentum and energy phases of a flow problem in a 3-D
model. This intricate feature of ANSYS enables designer to optimize the design procedure in an iterative manner
based on the final plots of post-processing phase of gear.
