The temperature field distribution of high-speed double-helical gears under oil injection lubrication is investigated by obtaining heat flux density and convective heat transfer coefficients through theoretical calculations and CFD (computational fluid dynamics) simulations. Based on the CFD method, fluid simulations are performed to obtain the distribution of lubricating oil on the surface of the double-helical gears, the velocity streamline diagram of the lubricating oil, and the convective heat transfer coefficients of different surfaces of the gears. The friction heat flux density is calculated using Hertzian contact theory and theoretical formula of heat generation. The double-helical gears’ steady-state temperature field simulation uses this heat flux density as a boundary condition. The correctness of the calculation method is verified through experiments. The study shows that increasing the jet velocity allows the jet to reach the tooth surface more effectively, improving the cooling effect and reducing the maximum gear temperature. However, the relationship between the jet velocity and the minimum gear temperature is non-linear. Within a certain range, increasing the jet diameter makes the jet wider, and the area covered by the lubricating oil becomes larger as the jet spreads around the gear teeth, enhancing the cooling effect. An increase in gear speed leads to an increase in frictional heat flux density; moreover, the high-velocity airflow generated by the increased speed reduces the amount of lubricant entering the mesh zone, which in turn causes the maximum temperature of the gears to continue to rise.
