Abstract:

The friction and temperature-rise mechanisms in the screw transmission of a flight aid carrier have received limited research attention, focusing primarily on structural strength rather than thermal-mechanical coupling. This study aims to address this gap by developing a thermal-mechanical coupling model to simulate the thermal and mechanical characteristics of the contact surface using accurate parameters. By analyzing stress, temperature rise, and the law between temperature and the friction coefficient, this study reveals the failure mechanism of the transmission. The numerical simulation results show that the temperature of the contact surface can quickly rise to 454.3℃, and the contact stress can reach 699.4MPa during high-speed friction. The elevated temperature weakens the material strength of the contact surface, while the high-speed sliding fiction causes continuous damage to the contact surface. The calculation results align with observed fault phenomena and provide a theoretical basis for the engineering application of this transmission technology.
