The basic rating life for 90% reliability is:
a)
From the product table for bearing 6309, C = 55,3 kN. Since the load is purely radial,
P = Fr = 10 kN (→ Equivalent dynamic bearing load). Therefore, in million revolutions
or in operating hours
8. What is the rating life in hours of operation (L10h) for deep groove ball bearing 6208
operating at rotational speed n = 650 min-1, with a radial load Fr of 3.2 kN or 326 kgf ?
(19,000 hrs.)
Solution:
Basic dynamic load rating Cr for bearing 6208 given is 29.1 kN (2970 kgf), ball bearing
speed factor fn relative to rotational speed n = 650 min-1 from the given fn = 0.37.
Therefore, with fh = 3.36 from the rated life, L10h, is approximately 19,000 hours.
9. A punch press has a no. 308 spherical roller bearing. The main shaft runs at 1600 rpm
and the bearing experiences a radial load of 2000 lbs. and a thrust of 1400 lbs.
Under steady loading conditions and for outer bearing ring rotation evaluate
(a) bearing life for 90% reliability
(b) bearing life for 96% reliability.
Solution:
From table 9 – 4 (see prep), for a 40mm (8 × 5) bore size bearing, the values of basic
static load rating C(o)1 = 12,900 lbs. and of basic dynamic load rating C1 = 13,700 lbs.
In order to calculate the equivalent load Pe, the values of x and y are to be evaluated from
table 9 – 3
[(iFA) / (C(o)1)] = [(1 × 1400) / (12,900)] = 0.108 and value of factor [(FA) / (VFR)]
Where:
V = 1.2 for outer ring rotation
FR = the radial load on the bearing
[(FA) / (VFR)] = [(1400) / (1.2 × 2000)]
= 0.5833
From table 9 – 3 (see prep), for [(iFA) / (C(o)1)] = 0.108, e1 = 0.30.
Since [(FA) / (VFR)] > e1, so x = 0.56, y = 1.45.
The equivalent load for the bearing is expressed by,
Pe = xVFR + yFA (1)
Substituting values in (1),
Pe = 0.56 × 1.2 × 2000 + 1.45 × 1400
Pe = 3374 lbs.
Also, Pe = VFR = 1.2 × 2000 = 2400 lbs.
Since 3374 > 2400 thus Pe = 3374 lbs.
Thus we see that as the reliability is increased from 90% to 96% the bearing life
decreases from 697.4 hrs. to 383.6 hrs.

18. Find the projected area and hence the length of a journal-bearing with a 3 in. diameter
journal acted upon by a load of 2200 lbs. The shaft speed is 200 fpm, viscosity of
lubricating oil is 32 centipoise and the coefficient of friction for the bearing is 0.01.
Solution:
Solution:
In Figure 1, RL and RR, the reaction provided by the bearing, are to be evaluated
first in order to calculate the bearing length. Considering all moment of forces about left
support point A and for equilibrium,
∑MA = 0 (1)
Thus,
1000 × 3 – 5 × RR = 0
or,
RR = [(300) / 5] = 600 lbs.
Similarly, considering moment of forces about right support point B
and for equilibrium:
∑MB = 0 (2)
Thus,
RL × 5 – 2 × 1000 = 0
or,
RL = [(2000) / 5] = 400 lbs
Since RR > RL, thus a value of R = 600 lbs. will be used to find the
bearing length.
Solution:
The journal (portion of shaft covered by bearing) is subjected to torsional, bending and
shear stresses due to the belt tensions. These stresses will determine the size (length) of
the journal bearing. The twisting moment induced in the journal due to net force (belt
pull) acting on it is given by:
T = (P1 – P2) (dp / 2) (1)

Air compressors:
Main bearing 125-250 1.0-2.0
Crankpin 300-600 1.0-1.7
Wrist pin 500-1000 1.5-2.0
St will produce a moment of force about the bearing center point.
Substituting values in (1),
T = (400 – 200) [(36) / 2] lb.–in.
T = 3600 lbs.–in.
The bending moment is given by,
M = (P1 + P2)b (2)
Where: b = distance between centers of bearing and pulley.
Substituting values in (2),
M = (400 + 200) × 12 lbs.–in.
M = 7200 lbs.–in.
The equivalent moment, ME, due to T and M is given by,
ME = (M/2)[1 + √{1 + (T/M)2}] (3)
Substituting values of M and T in (2),
ME = [(7200) / 2] [1 + √{1 + {(3600) / (7200)}2}]
∴ ME = 7625 lbs.–in.
The relation between the equivalent moment, ME, allowable
bearing pressure 'pb' and moment of inertia for the journal 'Ij' is given by,
ME = [(pb × Ij) / r] (4)
Where: Ij = [(πdb4) / (64)] (for circular cross-section)
∴ (Ij / r) = [(πdb4) / {(64) × (db / 2)}]
∴ (Ij / r) = [(πdb3) / (32)] (5)
Substituting expression for (Ij / r) from (5) in (4),
ME = pb × [(πdb3) / (32)] (6)
Rearranging (6) for db,
db = [(32 × ME) / (π × P)](1/3) (7)
From the table, for an electric motor bearing, the allowable
pressure is 150 psi (average value). Substituting values of ME and pb in
(7),
db = [(32 × 7625) / (π × 150)](1/3)
or,
db = 8 in.
From the table, for an electric motor bearing, (lb / db) = 1.75
(average value) where,
lb = bearing length
Thus,
lb = 1.75 × db
or,
Ib = 1.75 × 8 = 14 in.
The energy loss due to friction is given by,
hf = fb × W × [(πdb × np) / (12)] [(ft.–lb) / (min.)] (8)
where, fb = bearing friction coefficient
W = total bearing load, lb.
and W = (P1 + P2)lb.
np = pulley speed, rpm.
Substituting values in (8),
hf = 0.02 × 600 × [(π × 8 × 500) / (12)] [(ft.–lb) / (min.)]
hf = 12566.371 [(ft.–lb) / (min.)]
Since,
1 btu = 778[(ft.–lb) / (min.)]
hf = [(12566.371) / (778)] [(btu) / (min.)]
hf = 16.152 [(btu) / (min.)]
