Since thermoplastics are temperature-sensitive materials, heat generation in running spur gears is an important parameter. This paper presents two models for its evaluation, an exact one which considers all the parameters but needs a computer to solve the equations; then a simplified model. Both models take into account the contact outside the theoretical line of action which is the usual case with thermoplastic gears. Results for the simplified model are within reasonable agreement with the exact one.

The problem of combined free-forced convection and mass transfer flow over a vertical porous flat plate, in presence of heat generation and thermaldiffusion, is studied numerically. The non-linear partial differential equations and their boundary conditions, describing the problem under consideration, are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by using usual similarity transformations. This system is solved numerically by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique together with Runge-Kutta sixth order integration scheme. The effects of suction parameter, heat generation parameter and Soret number are examined on the flow field of a hydrogen-air mixture as a non-chemical reacting fluid pair. The analysis of the obtained results showed that the flow field is significantly influenced by these parameters.
