Calculation of load capacity of bevel gears - Part 2: Calculation of surface durability (pitting)

This part of ISO 10300 specifies the basic formulae for use in the determination of the surface load
capacity of straight and helical (skew), Zerol and spiral bevel gears including hypoid gears, and comprises
all the influences on surface durability for which quantitative assessments can be made. This part of
ISO 10300 is applicable to oil lubricated bevel gears, as long as sufficient lubricant is present in the mesh
at all times.
The formulae in this part of ISO 10300 are based on virtual cylindrical gears and restricted to bevel
gears whose virtual cylindrical gears have transverse contact ratios of εvα < 2. The results are valid
within the range of the applied factors as specified in ISO 10300-1 (see ISO 6336-2[1]). Additionally, the
given relations are valid for bevel gears of which the sum of profile shift coefficients of pinion and wheel
is zero (see ISO 23509).
The formulae in this part of ISO 10300 are not directly applicable to the assessment of other types of
gear tooth surface damage, such as plastic yielding, scratching, scuffing or any other type not specified.
WARNING — The user is cautioned that when the formulae are used for large average mean spiral
angles (βm1+βm2)/2 > 45°, for effective pressure angles αe > 30° and/or for large face widths
b > 13 mmn, the calculated results of ISO 10300 should be confirmed by experience.

Izračun nosilnosti stožčastih zobnikov - 2. del: Izračun obratovalne vzdržljivosti zobnih bokov (jamičenje)

Ta del standarda ISO 10300 določa osnovne formule, ki se uporabljajo pri določanju nosilnosti površine ravnih, valjastih (poševnih), Zerol in spiralnih stožčastih zobnikov, vključno s hipoidnimi zobniki, ter vključuje vse vplive na trajnost površine, za katero je mogoče opraviti količinske ocene. Ta del standarda ISO 10300 se uporablja za z oljem namazane stožčaste zobnike, pri čemer mora biti v mreži vedno dovolj maziva.
Formule v tem delu standarda ISO 10300 temeljijo na umišljenih valjastih zobnikih in so omejene na stožčaste zobnike z umišljenimi valjastimi zobniki s profilno stopnjo prekrivanja εvα < 2. Rezultati so veljavni znotraj obsega uporabljenih faktorjev iz standarda ISO 10300-1 (glej ISO 6336-2[1]). Poleg tega
so navedena razmerja veljavna za stožčaste zobnike, pri katerih je vsota koeficientov profilnega premika zobatega kolesca in kolesa
nič (glej ISO 23509).
Formule iz tega dela standarda ISO 10300 se ne uporabljajo neposredno za oceno drugih vrst poškodb površin zobnikovih zob, kot so nastajanje plastičnih deformacij, prask, razjed ali katerih koli drugih poškodb, ki niso opredeljene.
OPOZORILO – Uporabnika opozarjamo, da naj bi se pri uporabi formul za velike povprečne srednje spiralne kote (βm1 + βm2)/2 > 45°, za kote efektivnega tlaka αe > 30° in/ali za veliko širino zoba b > 13 mmn izračunan rezultat ISO 10300 potrdil z izkušnjami.

ISO 10300-2:2014(E)

Introduction
When ISO 10300:2001 (all parts, withdrawn) became due for (its first) revision, the opportunity was
taken to include hypoid gears, since previously the series only allowed for calculating the load capacity
of bevel gears without offset axes. The former structure is retained, i.e. three parts of the ISO 10300
series, together with ISO 6336-5, and it is intended to establish general principles and procedures for
rating of bevel gears. Moreover, ISO 10300 (all parts) is designed to facilitate the application of future
knowledge and developments, as well as the exchange of information gained from experience.
In view of the decision for ISO 10300 (all parts) to cover hypoid gears also, it was agreed to include a
separate clause: “Gear flank rating formulae — Method B2” in this part of ISO 10300, while the former
method B was renamed method B1. So, it became necessary to present a new, clearer structure of the
three parts, which is illustrated in ISO 10300-1:2014, Figure 1. Note, ISO 10300 (all parts) gives no
preferences in terms of when to use method B1 and when method B2.
This part of ISO 10300 deals with the failure of gear teeth by pitting, a fatigue phenomenon. Two varieties
of pitting are recognized, initial and destructive pitting.
In applications employing low hardness steel or through hardened steel, initial pitting frequently occurs
during early use and is not deemed serious. Initial pitting is characterized by small pits which do not
extend over the entire face width or profile depth of the affected tooth. The degree of acceptability
of initial pitting varies widely, depending on the gear application. Initial pitting occurs in localized
overstressed areas, and tends to redistribute the load by progressively removing high contact spots.
Generally, when the load has been redistributed, the pitting stops.
In applications employing high hardness steel and case carburized steel, the variety of pitting that occurs
is usually destructive. The formulae for pitting resistance given in this part of ISO 10300 are intended to
assist in the design of bevel gears which stay free from destructive pitting during their design lives (for
[4]
additional information, see ISO/TR 22849 ).
The basic formulae, first developed by Hertz for the contact pressure between two curved surfaces,
have been modified to consider the following four items: the load sharing between adjacent teeth, the
position of the centre of pressure on the tooth, the shape of the instantaneous area of contact, and the
load concentration resulting from manufacturing uncertainties. The Hertzian contact pressure serves
as the theory for the assessment of surface durability with respect to pitting. Although all premises for
a gear mesh are not satisfied by Hertzian relations, their use can be justified by the fact that, for a gear
material, the limits of the Hertzian pressure are determined on the basis of running tests with gears,
which include the additional influences in the analysis of the limit values. Therefore, if the reference is
within the application range, Hertzian pressure can be used to convert test gear data to gears of various
types and sizes.
NOTE Contrary to cylindrical gears, where the contact is usually linear, bevel gears are generally manufactured
with profile and lengthwise crowning: i.e. the tooth flanks are curved on all sides and the contact develops an
elliptical pressure surface. This is taken into consideration when determining the load factors by the fact that the
rectangular zone of action (in the case of spur and helical gears) is replaced by an inscribed parallelogram for
method B1 and an inscribed ellipse for method B2 (see Annex A for method B1 and Annex B for method B2). The
conditions for bevel gears, different from cylindrical gears in their contact, are thus taken into consideration by
the longitudinal and transverse load distribution factors.

5 Pitting damage — General aspects
5.1 Acceptable versus unacceptable pitting
When limits of the surface durability of the meshing flanks are exceeded, particles break out of the flank,
thus leaving pits. The extent, to which such pits may be tolerated, in terms of their size and number,
varies within wide limits which depend largely on the field of application. In some fields, extensive
pitting is acceptable; in others, no pitting is acceptable. The descriptions in 5.2 and 5.3 are relevant
to average working conditions and give guidelines to distinguish between initial and destructive, and
acceptable and unacceptable, pitting varieties.
A linear or progressive increase in the total area of pits (linear or progressive pitting) is generally
considered to be unacceptable. However, it is possible that the effective tooth bearing area is enlarged
by initial pitting, and the rate of pit generation subsequently decreases (degressive pitting), or even
ceases (arrested pitting), and then may be considered tolerable. Nevertheless, where there is dispute
over the acceptability of pitting the next subclause shall be determinant.
5.2 Assessment requirements
Pitting involving the formation of pits which increase linearly or progressively with time under
unchanged service conditions shall be unacceptable. Damage assessment shall include the entire active
area of all the tooth flanks. The number and size of newly developed pits in unhardened tooth flanks
shall be taken into consideration. Pits are frequently formed on just one, or only a few, of the surface
hardened gear tooth flanks. In such circumstances, assessment shall be centred on the flanks actually
pitted.
Teeth suspected of being especially at risk should be marked for critical examination if a quantitative
evaluation is required.
In special cases, it is possible that a first, rough assessment can be based on considerations of the entire
quantity of wear debris. But in critical cases, the condition of the flanks should be examined at least
6
three times. The first time, however, the examination should take place only after at least 10 cycles
of load. Depending on the results of previous examinations, further ones should be carried out after a
period of service.
When deterioration caused by pitting is such that it puts human life in danger, or poses a risk of other
grave consequences, the pitting shall not be tolerated. Due to stress concentration effects, a pit of 1 mm
in diameter near the fillet of a through hardened or case hardened gear tooth can become the origin of
a crack which could lead to tooth breakage; for this reason, such a pit shall be considered unacceptable
(for example, in aerospace transmissions).
Similar considerations should be taken into account in respect of turbine gears. In general, during the
10 11
long life (10 to 10 cycles) demanded of these gears, neither pitting nor unduly severe wear should
be considered acceptable as such damage could lead to unacceptable vibrations and excessive dynamic
loads. Appropriately generous safety factors should be included in the calculation: only a low probability
of failure shall be tolerated.
In contrast, pitting on the operating flanks may be tolerated for some slow speed industrial gears with
large teeth (e.g. module 25) made from low hardness steel, which can safely transmit the rated power for
10 years to 20 years. Individual pits can be up to 20 mm in diameter and 0,8 mm deep. The apparently
“destructive pitting”, which occurs during the first two or three years of service, normally slows down.
In such cases, the tooth flanks become smoothed and work hardened to the extent of increasing the
surface Brinell hardness number by 50 % or more. For such conditions, relatively low safety factors (in
some, less than 1) may be chosen, with a correspondingly higher probability of tooth surface damage.
However, a high safety factor against tooth breakage shall be chosen.

ISO 10300-2:2014(E)

5.3 General rating procedure
There are two main methods for rating the surface durability of bevel and hypoid gears: method B1 and
method B2. They are provided in Clause 6 and Clause 7, while Clause 8 contains those influence factors
which are equal for both. Although methods B1 and B2 use the same basis of calculation, the calculation
procedure is unique to each method.
With both methods, the capability of a gear tooth to resist pitting shall be determined by the comparison
of the following stress values:
— contact stress σ , based on the geometry of the tooth, the accuracy of its manufacture, the rigidity
H
of the gear blanks, bearings and housing, and the operating torque, expressed by the contact stress
formula (see 6.1 and 7.1);
— permissible contact stress σ , based on the endurance limit for contact stress, σ , and the
HP H,lim
effect of the operating conditions under which the gears operate, expressed by the permissible
contact stress Formulae (14) and (22) (see 6.2 and 7.2).
The ratio of the permissible contact stress and the calculated contact stress is the safety factor S . The
H
value of the minimum safety factor for contact stress, S , should be 1,0. For further recommendations
H,min
on the choice of this safety factor and other minimum values, see ISO 10300-1.
It is recommended that the gear designer and customer agree on the value of the minimum safety factor.
6 Gear flank rating formulae — Method B1
6.1 Contact stress formula
The calculation of pitting resistance is based on the contact (Hertzian) stress, in which the load is
distributed along the lines of contact (see ISO 10300-1:2014, Annex A). Calculations are to be carried out
for pinion and wheel together; however, in case of hypoid gears separately for drive (suffix D) and coast
side flank (suffix C):

The permissible contact stress shall be calculated separately for pinion (suffix 1) and wheel (suffix 2):
σσ= ZZ ZZ ZZ Z (4)
HP-B1H,lim NT XL vR WHyp
where
σ is the allowable stress number (contact), which accounts for material, heat treatment,

Z is the life factor (see 8.4), which accounts for the influence of required numbers of
NT

Z is the size factor (see 6.5.1), which accounts for the influence of the tooth size, given by
X

Z , Z , Z are the lubricant film factors (see 8.2) for the influence of the lubrication conditions;
L v R

W
running with a surface-hardened pinion;
Z is the hypoid factor (see 6.5.2), which accounts for the influence of lengthwise sliding
Hyp
onto the surface durability.
6.3 Calculated safety factor for contact stress

H
A safety factor related to the transferable torque is equal to the square of S .

6.4 Contact stress factors
6.4.1 Mid-zone factor, Z
M-B
The mid-zone factor, Z , considers the difference between the radius of relative curvature ρ at the
M-B rel
mean point and at the critical point of load application of the pinion. The radius ρ at the mean point
rel
P can directly be calculated from the data of the bevel gears in mesh (see ISO 10300-1:2014, Annex A).
For the conversion to the critical point of mesh, the corresponding virtual cylindrical gears are used.
Depending on the face contact ratio it can be the inner point of single contact B of the pinion (ε = 0)

or point M in the middle of the path of contact (ε ≥ 1) or a point interpolated between B and M for

0 < ε < 1 (see Figure 1). The comparison with the results of tooth contact analyses shows a good

approximation for bevel gear as well as for hypoid gear sets.
ATTENTION — For hypoid gears, the mid-zone factor should be determined for both, drive and
coast flank, separately.

each semi-ellipse (see Figure 2) represents the load on the respective contact line, and the sum of all
areas over all contact lines being simultaneously in mesh, represents the total load on the gear set.
Additionally, the distribution of the peak loads, p, over the line of action is assumed to follow a parabola
(exponent e). On this basis, the maximum load over the middle contact line divided by the total load is a

Introduction
When ISO 10300:2001 (all parts, withdrawn) became due for (its first) revision, the opportunity was
taken to include hypoid gears, since previously the series only allowed for calculating the load capacity
of bevel gears without offset axes. The former structure is retained, i.e. three parts of the ISO 10300
series, together with ISO 6336-5, and it is intended to establish general principles and procedures for
rating of bevel gears. Moreover, ISO 10300 (all parts) is designed to facilitate the application of future
knowledge and developments, as well as the exchange of information gained from experience.
In view of the decision for ISO 10300 (all parts) to cover hypoid gears also, it was agreed to include a
separate clause: “Gear flank rating formulae — Method B2” in this part of ISO 10300, while the former
method B was renamed method B1. So, it became necessary to present a new, clearer structure of the
three parts, which is illustrated in ISO 10300-1:2014, Figure 1. Note, ISO 10300 (all parts) gives no
preferences in terms of when to use method B1 and when method B2.
This part of ISO 10300 deals with the failure of gear teeth by pitting, a fatigue phenomenon. Two varieties
of pitting are recognized, initial and destructive pitting.
In applications employing low hardness steel or through hardened steel, initial pitting frequently occurs
during early use and is not deemed serious. Initial pitting is characterized by small pits which do not
extend over the entire face width or profile depth of the affected tooth. The degree of acceptability
of initial pitting varies widely, depending on the gear application. Initial pitting occurs in localized
overstressed areas, and tends to redistribute the load by progressively removing high contact spots.
Generally, when the load has been redistributed, the pitting stops.
In applications employing high hardness steel and case carburized steel, the variety of pitting that occurs
is usually destructive. The formulae for pitting resistance given in this part of ISO 10300 are intended to
assist in the design of bevel gears which stay free from destructive pitting during their design lives (for
[4]
additional information, see ISO/TR 22849 ).
The basic formulae, first developed by Hertz for the contact pressure between two curved surfaces,
have been modified to consider the following four items: the load sharing between adjacent teeth, the
position of the centre of pressure on the tooth, the shape of the instantaneous area of contact, and the
load concentration resulting from manufacturing uncertainties. The Hertzian contact pressure serves
as the theory for the assessment of surface durability with respect to pitting. Although all premises for
a gear mesh are not satisfied by Hertzian relations, their use can be justified by the fact that, for a gear
material, the limits of the Hertzian pressure are determined on the basis of running tests with gears,
which include the additional influences in the analysis of the limit values. Therefore, if the reference is
within the application range, Hertzian pressure can be used to convert test gear data to gears of various
types and sizes.
NOTE Contrary to cylindrical gears, where the contact is usually linear, bevel gears are generally manufactured
with profile and lengthwise crowning: i.e. the tooth flanks are curved on all sides and the contact develops an
elliptical pressure surface. This is taken into consideration when determining the load factors by the fact that the
rectangular zone of action (in the case of spur and helical gears) is replaced by an inscribed parallelogram for
method B1 and an inscribed ellipse for method B2 (see Annex A for method B1 and Annex B for method B2). The
conditions for bevel gears, different from cylindrical gears in their contact, are thus taken into consideration by
the longitudinal and transverse load distribution factors.

Calculation of load capacity of bevel gears —
Part 2:
Calculation of surface durability (pitting)
1 Scope
This part of ISO 10300 specifies the basic formulae for use in the determination of the surface load
capacity of straight and helical (skew), Zerol and spiral bevel gears including hypoid gears, and comprises
all the influences on surface durability for which quantitative assessments can be made. This part of
ISO 10300 is applicable to oil lubricated bevel gears, as long as sufficient lubricant is present in the mesh
at all times.
The formulae in this part of ISO 10300 are based on virtual cylindrical gears and restricted to bevel
gears whose virtual cylindrical gears have transverse contact ratios of ε < 2. The results are valid

[1]
within the range of the applied factors as specified in ISO 10300-1 (see ISO 6336-2 ). Additionally, the
given relations are valid for bevel gears of which the sum of profile shift coefficients of pinion and wheel
is zero (see ISO 23509).
The formulae in this part of ISO 10300 are not directly applicable to the assessment of other types of
gear tooth surface damage, such as plastic yielding, scratching, scuffing or any other type not specified.
WARNING — The user is cautioned that when the formulae are used for large average mean spiral
angles (β +β )/2 > 45°, for effective pressure angles α > 30° and/or for large face widths
m1 m2 e
b > 13 m , the calculated results of ISO 10300 should be confirmed by experience.

5 Pitting damage — General aspects
5.1 Acceptable versus unacceptable pitting
When limits of the surface durability of the meshing flanks are exceeded, particles break out of the flank,
thus leaving pits. The extent, to which such pits may be tolerated, in terms of their size and number,
varies within wide limits which depend largely on the field of application. In some fields, extensive
pitting is acceptable; in others, no pitting is acceptable. The descriptions in 5.2 and 5.3 are relevant
to average working conditions and give guidelines to distinguish between initial and destructive, and
acceptable and unacceptable, pitting varieties.
A linear or progressive increase in the total area of pits (linear or progressive pitting) is generally
considered to be unacceptable. However, it is possible that the effective tooth bearing area is enlarged
by initial pitting, and the rate of pit generation subsequently decreases (degressive pitting), or even
ceases (arrested pitting), and then may be considered tolerable. Nevertheless, where there is dispute
over the acceptability of pitting the next subclause shall be determinant.
5.2 Assessment requirements
Pitting involving the formation of pits which increase linearly or progressively with time under
unchanged service conditions shall be unacceptable. Damage assessment shall include the entire active
area of all the tooth flanks. The number and size of newly developed pits in unhardened tooth flanks
shall be taken into consideration. Pits are frequently formed on just one, or only a few, of the surface
hardened gear tooth flanks. In such circumstances, assessment shall be centred on the flanks actually
pitted.
Teeth suspected of being especially at risk should be marked for critical examination if a quantitative
evaluation is required.
In special cases, it is possible that a first, rough assessment can be based on considerations of the entire
quantity of wear debris. But in critical cases, the condition of the flanks should be examined at least
6
three times. The first time, however, the examination should take place only after at least 10 cycles
of load. Depending on the results of previous examinations, further ones should be carried out after a
period of service.
When deterioration caused by pitting is such that it puts human life in danger, or poses a risk of other
grave consequences, the pitting shall not be tolerated. Due to stress concentration effects, a pit of 1 mm
in diameter near the fillet of a through hardened or case hardened gear tooth can become the origin of
a crack which could lead to tooth breakage; for this reason, such a pit shall be considered unacceptable
(for example, in aerospace transmissions).
Similar considerations should be taken into account in respect of turbine gears. In general, during the
10 11
long life (10 to 10 cycles) demanded of these gears, neither pitting nor unduly severe wear should
be considered acceptable as such damage could lead to unacceptable vibrations and excessive dynamic
loads. Appropriately generous safety factors should be included in the calculation: only a low probability
of failure shall be tolerated.
In contrast, pitting on the operating flanks may be tolerated for some slow speed industrial gears with
large teeth (e.g. module 25) made from low hardness steel, which can safely transmit the rated power for
10 years to 20 years. Individual pits can be up to 20 mm in diameter and 0,8 mm deep. The apparently
“destructive pitting”, which occurs during the first two or three years of service, normally slows down.
In such cases, the tooth flanks become smoothed and work hardened to the extent of increasing the
surface Brinell hardness number by 50 % or more. For such conditions, relatively low safety factors (in
some, less than 1) may be chosen, with a correspondingly higher probability of tooth surface damage.
However, a high safety factor against tooth breakage shall be chosen.

5.3 General rating procedure
There are two main methods for rating the surface durability of bevel and hypoid gears: method B1 and
method B2. They are provided in Clause 6 and Clause 7, while Clause 8 contains those influence factors
which are equal for both. Although methods B1 and B2 use the same basis of calculation, the calculation
procedure is unique to each method.
With both methods, the capability of a gear tooth to resist pitting shall be determined by the comparison
of the following stress values:
— contact stress σ , based on the geometry of the tooth, the accuracy of its manufacture, the rigidity
H
of the gear blanks, bearings and housing, and the operating torque, expressed by the contact stress
formula (see 6.1 and 7.1);
— permissible contact stress σ , based on the endurance limit for contact stress, σ , and the
HP H,lim
effect of the operating conditions under which the gears operate, expressed by the permissible
contact stress Formulae (14) and (22) (see 6.2 and 7.2).
The ratio of the permissible contact stress and the calculated contact stress is the safety factor S . The
H
value of the minimum safety factor for contact stress, S , should be 1,0. For further recommendations
H,min
on the choice of this safety factor and other minimum values, see ISO 10300-1.
It is recommended that the gear designer and customer agree on the value of the minimum safety factor.
6 Gear flank rating formulae — Method B1
6.1 Contact stress formula
The calculation of pitting resistance is based on the contact (Hertzian) stress, in which the load is
distributed along the lines of contact (see ISO 10300-1:2014, Annex A). Calculations are to be carried out
for pinion and wheel together; however, in case of hypoid gears separately for drive (suffix D) and coast
side flank (suffix C):

6.4.1 Mid-zone factor, Z
M-B
The mid-zone factor, Z , considers the difference between the radius of relative curvature ρ at the
M-B rel
mean point and at the critical point of load application of the pinion. The radius ρ at the mean point
rel
P can directly be calculated from the data of the bevel gears in mesh (see ISO 10300-1:2014, Annex A).
For the conversion to the critical point of mesh, the corresponding virtual cylindrical gears are used.
Depending on the face contact ratio it can be the inner point of single contact B of the pinion (ε = 0)

or point M in the middle of the path of contact (ε ≥ 1) or a point interpolated between B and M for

0 < ε < 1 (see Figure 1). The comparison with the results of tooth contact analyses shows a good

approximation for bevel gear as well as for hypoid gear sets.
ATTENTION — For hypoid gears, the mid-zone factor should be determined for both, drive and
coast flank, separately.
