Load acting on bearing is the force acting onto the bearing, calculated from the friction moment, coefficient of friction, and bore diameter of the bearing.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates the load acting on a bearing based on the friction moment and the bearing's physical characteristics.
Details: Accurate load calculation is crucial for bearing selection, performance analysis, and ensuring proper operation and longevity of mechanical systems.
Tips: Enter friction moment in N·m, coefficient of friction, and bore diameter in meters. All values must be positive.
Q1: What is friction moment on bearing?
A: Friction moment on bearing is the moment acting onto the bearing races due to the friction between their rotating surfaces.
Q2: What is coefficient of friction for bearing?
A: Coefficient of friction for bearing is the ratio defining the force that resists the motion of the oil in relation to another body in contact with it.
Q3: What is bore diameter of bearing?
A: Bore diameter of bearing is the inner diameter of a bearing, referred to as inner diameter.
Q4: What are typical values for coefficient of friction in bearings?
A: Typical values range from 0.001 to 0.005 for well-lubricated bearings, depending on the type and operating conditions.
Q5: How does load affect bearing life?
A: Higher loads generally reduce bearing life. The relationship is typically expressed as L10 life being inversely proportional to the load raised to a power (3 for ball bearings, 10/3 for roller bearings).
