Material Constant in Design of Bevel Gears Formulas

The Material Constant is used to calculate the wear strength of the gear teeth and can be further simplified by fixed values of pressure angle and modulus of elasticity of the material. And is denoted by K. Material Constant is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of Material Constant is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Material Constant?

The Material Constant is used to calculate the wear strength of the gear teeth and can be further simplified by fixed values of pressure angle and modulus of elasticity of the material. Material Constant is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of Material Constant is always positive.

Can the Material Constant be negative?

No, the Material Constant, measured in Stress cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Material Constant?

Material Constant is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Stress. Pascal[N/mm²], Newton per Square Meter[N/mm²], Kilonewton per Square Meter[N/mm²] are the few other units in which Material Constant can be measured.
