Radial Clearance of Bearing in Terms of Radius of Bearing and Journal Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Radial clearance for bearing = Radius of Bearing-Radius of Journal
c = R-r
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

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.
Radius of Bearing - (Measured in Meter) - The Radius of Bearing is the sum of the radius of the journal and radial clearance of a bearing.
Radius of Journal - (Measured in Meter) - The Radius of Journal is the radius of the journal (which rotates freely in a supporting metal sleeve or shell).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of Bearing: 26 Millimeter --> 0.026 Meter (Check conversion here)
Radius of Journal: 25.5 Millimeter --> 0.0255 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

c = R-r --> 0.026-0.0255

Evaluating ... ...

c = 0.0005

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0005 Meter -->0.5 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.5 Millimeter <-- Radial clearance for bearing

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
