STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flow of Lubricant into Clearance Space: 524 Cubic Millimeter per Second --> 5.24E-07 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Radius of Journal: 25.5 Millimeter --> 0.0255 Meter (Check conversion here)
Flow Variable: 4.28 --> No Conversion Required
Journal Speed: 10 Revolution per Second --> 62.8318530685963 Radian per Second (Check conversion here)
Axial Length of Bearing: 20 Millimeter --> 0.02 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

c = 2*pi*Q_cs/(r*FV*n_s*l_a) --> 2*pi*5.24E-07/(0.0255*4.28*62.8318530685963*0.02)

Evaluating ... ...

c = 2.40058640290766E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.40058640290766E-05 Meter -->0.0240058640290766 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.0240058640290766 ≈ 0.024006 Millimeter <-- Radial clearance for bearing
