Question 11.19: The same 02-30 angular-contact ball bearing as in Prob. 11–1......

The same 02-30 angular-contact ball bearing as in Prob. 11–18 is to be subjected to a two-step loading cycle of 4 min with a loading of 18 kN, and one of 6 min with a loading of 30 kN. This cycle is to be repeated until failure. Estimate the total life in revolutions, hours, and loading cycles.

Total life in revolutions

Let:

l = total turns

f_{1} = fraction of turns at F_{1}

f_{2} = fraction of turns at F_{2}

From the solution of Prob. 11-18, L_{1}=1.434(10^{6})\;\mathrm{rev\;and}\;L_{2}=0.310(10^{6})\;\mathrm{rev}.

Palmgren-Miner rule:

{\frac{l_{1}}{L_{1}}}+{\frac{l_{2}}{L_{2}}}={\frac{f_{1}l}{L_{1}}}+{\frac{f_{2}l}{L_{2}}}=1

from which

l=\frac{1}{f_{1}/L_{1}+f_{2}/L_{2}}

 

l=\frac{1}{\{0.40/[1.434(10^{6})]\}+\{0.60/[0.310(10^{6})]\}}=451\,585\,rev

Total life in loading cycles

4 min at 2000 rev/min = 8000 rev

{\frac{6\ \mathrm{min}}{10\ \mathrm{min}/\mathrm{cycle}}}\ a t\,2000\ \mathrm{rev/min}={\frac{12\,000\ \mathrm{rev}}{20\,000\ \mathrm{rev/cycle}}}

 

{\frac{451\,585\,\mathrm{rev}}{20\,000\,\mathrm{rev/cycle}}}=22.58\,\mathrm{cycles}

Total life in hours

\left(10{\frac{\mathrm{min}}{\mathrm{cycle}}}\right)\left({\frac{22.58\,\mathrm{cycles}}{60\,\mathrm{min}/\mathrm{h}}}\right)=3.76\,\mathrm{h}
