Abstract

Internal clearance is a functional key characteristic of bearings. The bearing clearance can be evaluated using rigid body movements of the inner ring. Due to the deviations of dimension and roundness the contact areas between the bearing components cannot be predicted. Hence contact detection is necessary. For this purpose the herein presented concept is based on a raytrace algorithm. The concept can be used for the simulation of the bearing clearance for deviated bearing components. This enables the evaluation of the influence of dimensional and form deviations on the bearing clearance.
