Service Factor for Gear given Torque Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Service Factor for Spur Gear = Maximum Torque on Spur Gear/Rated Torque of Spur Gear
K_s = M_Tmax/M_τ
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Service Factor for Spur Gear - Service Factor for Spur Gear is defined as the ratio of the torque capacity and the rated torque value.
Maximum Torque on Spur Gear - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Maximum Torque on Spur Gear is the maximum working torque that can is acting onto a spur gear.
Rated Torque of Spur Gear - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The Rated Torque of Spur Gear is the torque capacity for which the gear is rated.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Torque on Spur Gear: 31400 Newton Millimeter --> 31.4 Newton Meter (Check conversion here)
Rated Torque of Spur Gear: 26000 Newton Millimeter --> 26 Newton Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_s = M_Tmax/M_τ --> 31.4/26

Evaluating ... ...

K_s = 1.20769230769231

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.20769230769231 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.20769230769231 ≈ 1.207692 <-- Service Factor for Spur Gear
