ABSTRACT A thermomechanical model of the FZG test rig is presented. The numerical model is based on the thermal network method and takes into account power losses due to tooth friction, rolling element bearings (REBs), oil churning, and shaft seals. Some measurements underline that REB rings run at different temperatures. To investigate this difference, several REB models are proposed and compared to measurements. Their influence on the global thermal behavior of the gear unit is discussed and analyzed.
