Thanks everyone for their responses. Yes, the above equation can be used only for deep groove ball bearings and thats what I am interested in. I still want to know how do i get to know Fr which is the radial load on th bearing.. I only have the basic static load rating of the bearing with me...
I have been doing some bearing friction torque calculations. I have available with me the Basic static load rating of the bearing which is usually termed as Cs. I need to calculate a factor which is dependant on the static equivalent load (Fs) and Cs. Now, the static equivalent load can be...
Can anybody tell me the difference between Basic static load rating of a bearing and the Maximum static load of the bearing? I have a bearing manufacturer's catalogue which only gives the maximum static and dynamic load the bearing can withstand. Do i assume it means basic static load rating?
