[Solved] Recommendation for helical gear contact
Hi
I want to model contact between helical gear. But i don’t know which kind of contact and solver should use.
Do you have any resources?
It depends what sort of analysis you would like to do. If you want to simulate a single contact between the gears, I would choose static structural.
As for the contact types, to make it more realistic you would definitely need a frictional contact (ps this is one of the hardest in terms of setting up and solution) . If you are new in Ansys workbench maybe starting with nonfrictional contact. You can check the contact type article for more information.

Hope these help
what type of gear you want to model? you can solidworks maybe its easier
