Research on the Bearing Sliding Loss Based on Time-Varying Contact Angle between Ball and Raceway

Based on the mechanical model, the friction loss between the ball and the raceway along the major axis of the contact ellipse is analyzed. The result shows that this part of the loss accounts for about 13.67% of the overall loss, which is mainly determined by the ball sliding length and cannot be ig...

description Based on the mechanical model, the friction loss between the ball and the raceway along the major axis of the contact ellipse is analyzed. The result shows that this part of the loss accounts for about 13.67% of the overall loss, which is mainly determined by the ball sliding length and cannot be ignored. The effects of the radial force, torque, rotational speed and groove curvature ratio on the sliding are all studied. Compared with other factors, radial force has the greatest influence on the sliding loss. As bearing speed gradually grows, the sliding on the inner raceway gradually increases while it gradually decreases on the outer raceway. Compared to the outer raceway curvature ratio, the sliding length is less sensitive to changes in the curvature ratio of the inner raceway. The paper provides theoretical guidance for the design and application of low-friction bearings.
