Concept:

Loadlife relationship:

The approximate rating of the service life of a ball or roller bearing is based on the given fundamental equation.

L10 = Rated bearing life (in million revolutions)

C = Dynamic load capacity.

P = Load acting in bearing.

k = 3 for ball bearing and k = 10I3 for the roller bearing.

Calculation:

Given:

PP = 30 kN, QP = 45 kN and k = 3.

∵ the dynamic load capacity of bearing is the same i.e. CP = CQ.
