1. Determining gear loads

·Length: generally millimetre (mm)

·Time t: minute (min) and second (s)

·Mass: kilogram (kg)

·Force F: newton (N) or decanewton (daN)

·Torque C: metre · newton (m · N) or metre decanewton (m · daN)

·Stress, pressure: bar; 1 bar = 0.1 N/mm ² or: hectobar (hbar) = 1 daN/mm ² .

·Power P: watt (W) and kilowatt (kW)
