Question: Problem 2 ( 6 points, consult Lecture 3 1 ) : In this problem, you are asked to calculate contact fatigue life for spur gears

Problem 2(6 points, consult Lecture 31): In this problem, you are asked to calculate contact fatigue life for spur gears A 20 spur pinion with 20 teeth and a module of 3 mm transmits 1000 W to a 38-tooth gear. The pinion speed is 400 rpm , and the gears are grade 2, nitrided (2.5% chrome, 87.5 HR15N)(side note: what is the difference between nitriding and carburizing?),20-mm face width, uncrowned, manufactured at a No.8 quality standard, and considered to be a commercial enclosed gearing unit. The shock from the prime mover is normal, reaction load torque shock is also normal. Pinion life is 109cycles and reliability is 0.99.
a. Obtain the magnitude of the transmitted load and the pinion pitch-line velocity.
b. Obtain all the modification factors in the AGMA contact stress equation.
c. If the problem were in the US customary units, what are the modification factor values for AGMA contact stress?
d. Obtain the contact strength value Sc as well as the various factors for the AGMA contact strength calculation.
e. Obtain SH, the factor of safety in contact fatigue.
