Abstract

This research investigates the use of Acoustic Emission (AE) measurement to monitor the lubrication conditions in simulated gear tooth contacts. It is experimentally shown that a strong correlation between lambda value (an indicator of the lubrication regime) and the AE exists, and that for a constant speed a simple empirical relationship exists between them. This benefits those seeking to use AE for condition monitoring of gears.
