Equivalent dynamic radial bearing loads (Pr)

For cylindrical roller bearings with purely radial applied load: P = Fr (kN) Note: The maximum dynamic radial load that may be applied to a cylindrical roller bearing should be < C/3. If, in addition to the radial load, an axial load Fa acts on the bearing, this axial load is taken into consideration when calculating the life of a bearing (with Fa < Faz; Faz is the allowable axial load).

To calculate the L10 life, it is necessary to calculate a dynamic equivalent radial load, designated by Pr. The dynamic equivalent radial load is defined as a single radial load that, if applied to the bearing, will result in the same life as the combined loading under which the bearing operates. Pr = XFr + Y1Fa Where, Pr = Fr = Fa = X = Y = Dynamic Equivalent Radial Load Applied Radial Load Applied Axial Load Radial Load Factor Axial Load Factor

P = Fr P = 0.93 Fr + 0.69 Fa P = Fr P = 0.93 Fr + 0.45 Fa

For spherical roller bearings, the values for X and Y can be determined using the equations below. Calculate the ratio of the axial load to the radial load. Compare this ratio to the e value for the bearing. In equation form, Pr = Fr + Y2 Fa for Fa / Fr e, and

Tapered roller bearings use the equations based on the number of rows and type of mounting utilized. For single-row bearings in direct or indirect mounting, the table on page A31 can be used based on the direction of the externally applied thrust load. Once the appropriate design is chosen, review the table and check the thrust condition to determine which thrust load and dynamic equivalent radial load calculations apply.

Pr = 0.67Fr + Y2 Fa for Fa / Fr > e. Note that values for e, Y1 and Y2 are available in the bearing tables. Needle roller bearings are designed to carry radial load with zero thrust load under normal conditions. With the thrust load equal to zero equivalent radial load (Pr) is equal to the design radial load (Fr). Your Timken representative should be consulted on any applications where thrust load is involved, as the resulting increase in internal friction may require cooling to prevent increased operating temperatures.

For thrust ball, cylindrical and tapered roller bearings, the existence of radial loads introduces complex load calculations that must be carefully considered. If radial load is zero, the equivalent dynamic thrust load (Pa) will be equal to the applied thrust load (Fa). If any radial load is expected in the application, consult your Timken representative for advice on bearing selection. For thrust angular contact ball bearings, the equivalent dynamic thrust load is determined by: Pa = Xr F + YFa The minimum permissible thrust load to radial load ratios (Fa/Fr) and X and Y factors are listed in the bearing dimension tables in the thrust bearing section. Thrust spherical roller bearing dynamic thrust loads are determined by: Pa = 1.2Fr + Fa Radial load (Fr) of a thrust spherical roller bearing is proportional to the applied axial load (Fa) with Fr 0.55 Fa. Because of the steep roller angle and the fact that the bearing is separable, a radial load will induce a thrust component (Fai = 1.2 Fr), that must be resisted by another thrust bearing on the shaft or by an axial load greater than Fai.
