Abstract
The thermal resistance of an angular contact ball bearing as a functio n of the radial and axial load is investigated numerically. An elastic stress analysis, based on Hertzian contact theory, provides circumfer entially-varying contact areas for input to the thermal model. A finit e difference model of the combined conductive, convective and radiativ e transport from the inner to outer race is used to calculate the over all thermal resistance of the bearing.
