Abstract:The purpose of this study is to generate some experimental data associated with the thermal heat exchange between an oil jet flow and a rotating gear. To this end, a specific test bench was designed. The principle of this test bench is to inject oil heated to a temperature of about 80 °C onto a rotating test sample at ambient temperature. Temperature measurements of the oil via injection nozzles and the rotating component allow the determination of the heat flow between these elements using a numerical method … Show more
