Effect of oil temperature and viscosity on the ring gear orbit in the internal gear motor and pump is analyzed in this study. The mobility method is used to calculate the ring gear orbit. The mathematical model of oil viscosity and temperature is then integrated into the mobility method. The simulation results point out that the oil temperature and viscosity have great effect on the eccentricity, position angle and minimum oil film thickness. The metal - to - metal contact phenomenon occurs if internal gear motor and pump operates under high values of oil temperature or low values of oil viscosity conditions. | Analysis effects of oil viscosity and temperature on orbit of ring gear in internal gear motor and pump
