a_f = W/(A_p*p_r)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Load coefficient for bearing - Load coefficient for bearing is calculated with load acting on bearing, the total projected area of bearing pad, and pressure of lubricating oil.
Load Acting on Sliding Bearing - (Measured in Newton) - Load Acting on Sliding Bearing is the force acting onto the sliding journal bearing.
Total Projected Area of Bearing Pad - (Measured in Square Meter) - Total projected area of bearing pad is the total area of the bearing pad that is projected onto the bearing surface.
Pressure of Lubricating Oil - (Measured in Pascal) - The Pressure of Lubricating Oil is the Value of pressure exerted by the lubricating oil.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load Acting on Sliding Bearing: 1800 Newton --> 1800 Newton No Conversion Required
Total Projected Area of Bearing Pad: 450 Square Millimeter --> 0.00045 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
