    Calculate Horsepower to rotate an object resting on a thruust bearing

    OK...thanks for comments...attached is the revuised calculation, let me know if you see any glaring errors. thanks.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=eb8db81a-b0e7-429d-b2ce-454ee12daff1&file=CAL-760-R1.pdf

    Calculate Horsepower to rotate an object resting on a thruust bearing

    kinda coming to same conclusion that they arev reduntant. eff = 1-c.o.f. thoughts?

    Calculate Horsepower to rotate an object resting on a thruust bearing

    Hi...trying to determine if i need to consider both efficiency and c.o.f. of the thrustv bearing when determining required torque in order to obtain hp. any insight appereciated.
