Introduction

ISO 6336 (all parts) consists of International Standards, Technical Specifications (TS) and Technical

Reports (TR) under the general title Calculation of load capacity of spur and helical gears (see Table 1).

— International Standards contain calculation methods that are based on widely accepted practices

and have been validated.

— Technical Specifications (TS) contain calculation methods that are still subject to further

development.

— Technical Reports (TR) contain data that is informative, such as example calculations.

The procedures specified in parts 1 to 19 of the ISO 6336 series cover fatigue analyses for gear rating.

The procedures described in parts 20 to 29 of the ISO 6336 series are predominantly related to the

tribological behavior of the lubricated flank surface contact. Parts 30 to 39 of the ISO 6336 series

include example calculations. The ISO 6336 series allows the addition of new parts under appropriate

numbers to reflect knowledge gained in the future.

Requesting standardized calculations according to the ISO 6336 series without referring to specific

parts requires the use of only those parts that are currently designated as International Standards (see

Table 1 for listing). When requesting further calculations, the relevant part or parts of the ISO 6336

series need to be specified. Use of a Technical Specification as acceptance criteria for a specific design

need to be agreed in advance between the manufacturer and the purchaser.

4 General
4.1 Determination of load and stress spectra

Variable loads resulting from a working process, starting process or from operation at or near a critical

speed will cause varying stresses at the gear teeth of a drive system. The magnitude and frequency of

these loads depend upon the driven machine(s), the driver(s) or motor(s) and the dynamic mass elastic

properties of the system.
These variable loads (stresses) may be determined by such procedures as
— experimental measurement of the operating loads at the machine in question,

— estimation of the spectrum, if this is known, for a similar machine with a similar operating mode, and

— calculation, using known external excitation and a mass elastic simulation of the drive system,

preferably followed by experimental testing to validate the calculation.

To obtain the load spectra for fatigue damage calculation, the range of the measured (or calculated)

loads is divided into bins or classes. Each bin contains the number of load occurrences recorded in its

load range. A widely-used number of bins is 64. These bins can be of an equal size, but it is usually

better to use larger bin sizes at the lower loads and smaller bin sizes at the upper loads in the range. In

this way, the most damaging loads may be limited to fewer calculated stress cycles and the resulting

design is more accurate regarding the effective load. It is recommended that a zero-load bin be included

so that the total time used to rate the gears matches the design operating life. For consistency, the usual

presentation method is to have the highest torque associated with the lowest numbered bins, such that

the most damaging conditions appear towards the top of any table.

The cycle count for the load class corresponding to the load value for the highest loaded tooth is

incremented at every load repetition. Table 3 shows as an example of how the torque classes defined in

Table 4 can be applied to specific torque levels and correlated numbers of cycles.

Table 3 — Torque classes/numbers of cycles — Example: classes 38 and 39 (see Table 4)

Torque class, T
Number of cycles, n
N·m
11 620 ≤ T ≤ 12 619 n = 237
38 38
10 565 ≤ T ≤ 11 619 n = 252
39 39

The torques used to evaluate the tooth loading should include the dynamic effects at different

rotational speeds.

This spectrum is only valid for the measured or evaluated time period. If the spectrum is extrapolated

to represent the required lifetime, the possibility that there might be torque peaks not frequent enough

to be evaluated in that measured spectrum shall be considered. These transient peaks can have an

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST ISO 6336-6:2020
ISO 6336-6:2019(E)

effect on the gear life. Therefore, the evaluated time period could have to be extended to capture

extreme load peaks.

Stress spectra concerning bending and pitting can be obtained from the load (torque).

The tooth root stress may also be measured by means of strain gauges in the fillet. The relevant contact

stress may be calculated from the measurements.

4.2 General calculation of service life

The calculated service life is based on the theory that every load cycle (every revolution) is damaging

to the gear. The amount of damage depends on the stress level and can be considered as zero for lower

stress levels.

The calculated bending or pitting fatigue life of a gear is a measure of its ability to accumulate discrete

damage until failure occurs.
The fatigue life calculation requires
a) the stress spectrum,
b) material fatigue properties, and
c) a damage accumulation method.
The stress spectrum is discussed in 5.1.

Strength values based on material fatigue properties are chosen from applicable S-N curves. Many

specimens shall be tested by stressing them repeatedly at one stress level until failure occurs. This

gives, after a statistical interpretation for a specific probability, a failure cycle number characteristic of

this stress level. Repeating the procedure at different stress levels leads to an S-N curve.

An example of a cumulative stress spectrum is given in Figure 1. Figure 2 shows a cumulative contact

stress spectrum with an S-N curve for specific material fatigue properties.

4.3 Palmgren-Miner rule

The Palmgren Miner rule — in addition to other rules or modifications — is a widely-used linear damage

accumulation method. It is assumed that the damaging effect of each stress repetition at a given stress

level is equal, which means the first stress cycle at a given stress level is as damaging as the last.

The Palmgren Miner rule operates on the hypothesis that the portion of useful fatigue life used by

a number of repeated stress cycles at a particular stress is equal to the ratio of the total number of

cycles during the fatigue life at a particular stress level according to the S-N curve established for the

material. For example, if a part is stressed for 3 000 cycles at a stress level which would cause failure in

100 000 cycles, 3 % of the fatigue life would be expended. Repeated stress at another stress level would

consume another similarly calculated portion of the total fatigue life.

The used material fatigue characteristics and endurance data should be related to a specific and

required failure probability, e.g. 1 %, 5 % or 10 %.

When 100 % of the fatigue life is expended in this manner, the part could be expected to fail. The order

in which each of these individual stress cycles is applied is not considered significant in Palmgren Miner

analysis.

where
n is the number of load cycles for bin i;

N is the number of load cycles to failure for bin i (taken from the appropriate S-N curve).

If there is an endurance limit (upper, horizontal line beyond the knee in Figure 2), the calculation is only

done for stresses above this endurance limit.

If the appropriate S-N curve shows no endurance limit (decreasing line beyond the knee (kink point)

in Figure 3), the calculation shall be done for all stress levels. For each stress level, i, the number of

cycles to failure, N , shall be taken from the corresponding stress level of the S-N curve. Other damage

accumulation (including non-linear) hypotheses in addition to the herein described method and

permissible damage sums other than one may be used upon agreement of the purchaser and the gear

box manufacturer.

This method is only valid for recalculation. It describes the application of linear cumulative damage

calculations according to the Palmgren Miner rule (see 4.3) and has been chosen because it is widely

known and easy to apply; the choice does not imply that the method is superior to the others described

in the literature (References [4], [9], [10] and [17]).

Introduction

ISO 6336 (all parts) consists of International Standards, Technical Specifications (TS) and Technical

Reports (TR) under the general title Calculation of load capacity of spur and helical gears (see Table 1).

— International Standards contain calculation methods that are based on widely accepted practices

and have been validated.

— Technical Specifications (TS) contain calculation methods that are still subject to further

development.

— Technical Reports (TR) contain data that is informative, such as example calculations.

The procedures specified in parts 1 to 19 of the ISO 6336 series cover fatigue analyses for gear rating.

The procedures described in parts 20 to 29 of the ISO 6336 series are predominantly related to the

tribological behavior of the lubricated flank surface contact. Parts 30 to 39 of the ISO 6336 series

include example calculations. The ISO 6336 series allows the addition of new parts under appropriate

numbers to reflect knowledge gained in the future.

Requesting standardized calculations according to the ISO 6336 series without referring to specific

parts requires the use of only those parts that are currently designated as International Standards (see

Table 1 for listing). When requesting further calculations, the relevant part or parts of the ISO 6336

series need to be specified. Use of a Technical Specification as acceptance criteria for a specific design

need to be agreed in advance between the manufacturer and the purchaser.

4 General
4.1 Determination of load and stress spectra

Variable loads resulting from a working process, starting process or from operation at or near a critical

speed will cause varying stresses at the gear teeth of a drive system. The magnitude and frequency of

these loads depend upon the driven machine(s), the driver(s) or motor(s) and the dynamic mass elastic

properties of the system.
These variable loads (stresses) may be determined by such procedures as
— experimental measurement of the operating loads at the machine in question,

— estimation of the spectrum, if this is known, for a similar machine with a similar operating mode, and

— calculation, using known external excitation and a mass elastic simulation of the drive system,

preferably followed by experimental testing to validate the calculation.

To obtain the load spectra for fatigue damage calculation, the range of the measured (or calculated)

loads is divided into bins or classes. Each bin contains the number of load occurrences recorded in its

load range. A widely-used number of bins is 64. These bins can be of an equal size, but it is usually

better to use larger bin sizes at the lower loads and smaller bin sizes at the upper loads in the range. In

this way, the most damaging loads may be limited to fewer calculated stress cycles and the resulting

design is more accurate regarding the effective load. It is recommended that a zero-load bin be included

so that the total time used to rate the gears matches the design operating life. For consistency, the usual

presentation method is to have the highest torque associated with the lowest numbered bins, such that

the most damaging conditions appear towards the top of any table.

The cycle count for the load class corresponding to the load value for the highest loaded tooth is

incremented at every load repetition. Table 3 shows as an example of how the torque classes defined in

Table 4 can be applied to specific torque levels and correlated numbers of cycles.

Table 3 — Torque classes/numbers of cycles — Example: classes 38 and 39 (see Table 4)

Torque class, T
Number of cycles, n
N·m
11 620 ≤ T ≤ 12 619 n = 237
38 38
10 565 ≤ T ≤ 11 619 n = 252
39 39

The torques used to evaluate the tooth loading should include the dynamic effects at different

rotational speeds.

This spectrum is only valid for the measured or evaluated time period. If the spectrum is extrapolated

to represent the required lifetime, the possibility that there might be torque peaks not frequent enough

to be evaluated in that measured spectrum shall be considered. These transient peaks can have an

© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved 5
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO 6336-6:2019(E)

effect on the gear life. Therefore, the evaluated time period could have to be extended to capture

extreme load peaks.

Stress spectra concerning bending and pitting can be obtained from the load (torque).

The tooth root stress may also be measured by means of strain gauges in the fillet. The relevant contact

stress may be calculated from the measurements.

4.2 General calculation of service life

The calculated service life is based on the theory that every load cycle (every revolution) is damaging

to the gear. The amount of damage depends on the stress level and can be considered as zero for lower

stress levels.

The calculated bending or pitting fatigue life of a gear is a measure of its ability to accumulate discrete

damage until failure occurs.
The fatigue life calculation requires
a) the stress spectrum,
b) material fatigue properties, and
c) a damage accumulation method.
The stress spectrum is discussed in 5.1.

Strength values based on material fatigue properties are chosen from applicable S-N curves. Many

specimens shall be tested by stressing them repeatedly at one stress level until failure occurs. This

gives, after a statistical interpretation for a specific probability, a failure cycle number characteristic of

this stress level. Repeating the procedure at different stress levels leads to an S-N curve.

An example of a cumulative stress spectrum is given in Figure 1. Figure 2 shows a cumulative contact

stress spectrum with an S-N curve for specific material fatigue properties.

Linear, non-linear and relative methods are used. Further information can be found in the literature

(References [4], [9], [10] and [17]).
4.3 Palmgren-Miner rule

The Palmgren Miner rule — in addition to other rules or modifications — is a widely-used linear damage

accumulation method. It is assumed that the damaging effect of each stress repetition at a given stress

level is equal, which means the first stress cycle at a given stress level is as damaging as the last.

The Palmgren Miner rule operates on the hypothesis that the portion of useful fatigue life used by

a number of repeated stress cycles at a particular stress is equal to the ratio of the total number of

cycles during the fatigue life at a particular stress level according to the S-N curve established for the

material. For example, if a part is stressed for 3 000 cycles at a stress level which would cause failure in

100 000 cycles, 3 % of the fatigue life would be expended. Repeated stress at another stress level would

consume another similarly calculated portion of the total fatigue life.

The used material fatigue characteristics and endurance data should be related to a specific and

required failure probability, e.g. 1 %, 5 % or 10 %.

When 100 % of the fatigue life is expended in this manner, the part could be expected to fail. The order

in which each of these individual stress cycles is applied is not considered significant in Palmgren Miner

analysis.
Failure could be expected when

where
n is the number of load cycles for bin i;

N is the number of load cycles to failure for bin i (taken from the appropriate S-N curve).

If there is an endurance limit (upper, horizontal line beyond the knee in Figure 2), the calculation is only

done for stresses above this endurance limit.

If the appropriate S-N curve shows no endurance limit (decreasing line beyond the knee (kink point)

in Figure 3), the calculation shall be done for all stress levels. For each stress level, i, the number of

cycles to failure, N , shall be taken from the corresponding stress level of the S-N curve. Other damage

accumulation (including non-linear) hypotheses in addition to the herein described method and

permissible damage sums other than one may be used upon agreement of the purchaser and the gear

box manufacturer.

5 Calculation of service strength on the basis of single-stage strength according

to ISO 6336 series
5.1 Basic principles

This method is only valid for recalculation. It describes the application of linear cumulative damage

calculations according to the Palmgren Miner rule (see 4.3) and has been chosen because it is widely

known and easy to apply; the choice does not imply that the method is superior to the others described

in the literature (References [4], [9], [10] and [17]).

From the individual torque classes, the torques at the upper limit of each torque class and the associated

numbers of cycles shall be listed (see Table 5 for an example).
Table 5 — Torque classes/numbers of cycles — Example: classes 38 and 39

Number of cycles, n

T < 12 620 N = 237
38 38
T < 11 620 N = 252
39 39

For conservative calculation, sufficiently accurate for a high number of torque classes.

Based on the load spectrum (T , n ), the effective stress levels σ are determined by help of the methods

described in ISO 6336-2 and ISO 6336-3 for the pinion or the wheel to obtain a stress spectrum (σ , n )

Introduction

L’ISO 6336 (toutes les parties) est constituée de Normes internationales, de Spécifications techniques

(TS) et de Rapports techniques (TR) regroupés sous le titre général Calcul de la capacité de charge des

engrenages cylindriques à dentures droite et hélicoïdale (voir Tableau 1).

— Les Normes internationales contiennent des méthodes de calcul qui sont basées sur des pratiques

largement acceptées et qui ont été validées.

— Les Spécifications techniques (TS) contiennent des méthodes de calcul qui sont toujours en cours de

développement.

— Les Rapports techniques (TR) contiennent des données informatives, telles que des exemples de

calculs.

Les modes opératoires spécifiés dans les parties 1 à 19 de la série ISO 6336 traitent des analyses de

la fatigue pour l’évaluation de la tenue en fatigue des engrenages. Les modes opératoires décrits dans

les parties 20 à 29 de la série ISO 6336 sont principalement associés au comportement tribologique

du contact de surface des flancs de denture lubrifiée. Les parties 30 à 39 de la série ISO 6336 incluent

des exemples de calcul. La série ISO 6336 permet d’ajouter de nouvelles parties sous des numéros

appropriés, afin d’intégrer les connaissances acquises ultérieurement.

Toute demande de calculs selon la série ISO 6336 sans référence à des parties spécifiques nécessite

d'utiliser uniquement les parties désignées comme Normes internationales (voir la liste du Tableau 1).

Si des calculs supplémentaires sont requis, la ou les partie(s) pertinente(s) de la série ISO 6336 doivent

être spécifiées. L’utilisation d’une Spécification technique en tant que critère d’acceptation pour une

conception spécifique est soumise à un accord commercial.

4 Généralités
4.1 Détermination des spectres de charge et de contrainte

Les charges variables résultantes d’un processus de fonctionnement, d’un processus de démarrage ou

d’une utilisation sur ou proche d’une vitesse critique vont créer des variations de contrainte pour les

dentures du système d’entraînement. L’amplitude et la fréquence de ces charges dépendent de la (ou

des) machines(s) menée(s), de la (ou des) machine(s) menante(s) ou de l’entraînement ou du (ou des)

moteur(s) et des propriétés dynamiques du système masse ressort.

Ces charges variables (contraintes) peuvent être déterminées par un ou plusieurs des modes opératoires

tels qu’:

— un mesurage expérimental des charges en fonctionnement sur la machine en question,

— une estimation du spectre, s’il est connu pour une machine similaire ayant un mode de fonctionnement

similaire, et

— un calcul par simulation dynamique des excitations extérieures connues des masses et des élasticités

du système d’entraînement, de préférence suivi d’essai expérimental afin de valider le calcul.

Pour obtenir le spectre de charge pour le calcul d’endommagement en fatigue, la gamme des charges

mesurées (ou calculées) est divisée en catégories ou classes. Chaque catégorie contient le nombre

d’occurrences de charge enregistrées dans sa plage de charges. Le nombre de catégories, habituellement

utilisé, est 64. Ces catégories peuvent être de taille identique, mais il est préférable d’utiliser des

catégories de taille plus grandes aux charges les plus faibles et des catégories de taille plus petites aux

charges les plus hautes de la gamme. De cette façon, les charges entraînant le plus d’endommagement

peuvent être limitées à moins de cycles de contrainte calculés et la conception résultante est plus exacte

relativement à la charge effective. Il est recommandé qu’une catégorie de charge nulle soit incluse ainsi

le temps total utilisé pour évaluer les engrenages correspond à la durée en service de conception. Pour

la cohérence, la méthode de présentation habituelle doit associer le couple le plus haut au numéro des

catégories le plus petit, afin que les conditions entraînant le plus d’endommagement apparaissent en

tête de n’importe quel tableau.

Le comptage du cycle pour la catégorie de charge correspondant à la vapeur de charge pour la dent

la plus chargée est incrémenté à chaque répétition de charge. Le Tableau 3 indique à l’aide d’un

exemple comment appliquer les catégories de couples définies dans le Tableau 4 aux niveaux de couple

spécifiques et aux nombres de cycles correspondants.

Il convient que les couples utilisés pour évaluer le chargement de la dent incluent les effets dynamiques

aux différentes vitesses de rotation.

Ce spectre n’est valable que pour la durée mesurée ou évaluée. Si le spectre est extrapolé pour

représenter la durée de vie souhaitée, la possibilité qu’il puisse y avoir des pointes de couple pas assez

fréquentes pour avoir été enregistrées dans ce spectre mesuré doit être prise en considération. Ces

pointes transitoires peuvent avoir un effet sur la durée de vie de l’engrenage. Cependant, il pourrait

être nécessaire d’élargir la durée de vie évaluée pour intégrer les pics de charge extrêmes.

Les spectres de contrainte concernant la flexion ou les phénomènes de contact peuvent être obtenus à

partir de spectre de charge (couple).

Les contraintes en pied de dent peuvent également être mesurées au moyen de jauges de contrainte

dans le profil de raccordement en pied de dent. Les contraintes de contact correspondantes peuvent

être calculées à partir des mesurages.

4.2 Calcul général de la durée en service

La durée en service calculée est basée sur la théorie que chaque cycle de charge (chaque tour) est

endommageante pour l’engrenage. L’étendue des endommagements dépend du niveau de contrainte et

peut être voisin de zéro pour les niveaux de contrainte les plus faibles.

La durée de vie calculée en fatigue à la flexion ou à la pression de contact d’un engrenage (écaillage)

est une mesure de sa capacité à cumuler des endommagements partiels jusqu’à ce que la défaillance se

produise.
Les calculs de tenue à la fatigue exigent de connaître:
a) le spectre de contrainte,
b) les propriétés en fatigue du matériau, et
c) une méthode de cumul des endommagements.
Le spectre de contrainte est traité en 5.1.

Les valeurs de tenue basées sur les propriétés en fatigue du matériau sont choisies à partir des

courbes S-N applicables. De nombreux échantillons doivent subir un essai en les chargeant de manière

répétée sur un niveau de contrainte unique jusqu’à l’apparition de la défaillance. Cela donne, après

une interprétation statistique pour une probabilité donnée, un nombre de cycles jusqu’à la défaillance

caractéristique pour ce niveau de contrainte.
