Minimum Film Thickness of bearing in Terms of Eccentricity Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Minimum Film Thickness = Radial clearance for bearing*(1-Eccentricity Ratio of Journal Bearing)
h_° = c*(1-ε)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Minimum Film Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Minimum film thickness is the lowest amount of the thickness of the oil film formed inside the sliding bearing.
Radial clearance for bearing - (Measured in Meter) - Radial clearance for bearing is a measured value of the total movement of one ring relative to the other in a plane perpendicular to the bearing axis.
Eccentricity Ratio of Journal Bearing - The Eccentricity Ratio of Journal Bearing is the measure of the offset between the center of the journal and the center of the bearing, influencing lubrication and performance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radial clearance for bearing: 0.024 Millimeter --> 2.4E-05 Meter (Check conversion here)
Eccentricity Ratio of Journal Bearing: 0.49 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_° = c*(1-ε) --> 2.4E-05*(1-0.49)

Evaluating ... ...

h_° = 1.224E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.224E-05 Meter -->0.01224 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.01224 Millimeter <-- Minimum Film Thickness

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
