The application of the 3D finite element sub-structure method has helped to improve the accuracy of calculation of gear tooth contact and fillet stresses in large spur and helical gear systems. The development of a dedicated preprocessor has significantly reduced the manual effort involved in the analysis. The methodology is explained using the example analyses of the gear systems in the two stages of a typical speed reduction gearbox used in the Pratt and Whitney Canada PW100 turbo propeller engines.
