Definition :
- Bearings that locate the rotor axially are called thrust bearings.
- They resist axial (thrust) loads acting along the shaft.
- Total thrust is the resultant axial force acting on the pump rotor.
- Thrust bearings prevent axial movement and protect rotating equipment.
Uses :
- Support axial thrust in vertical and horizontal shaft systems.
- Maintain correct rotor position inside the casing.
- Absorb axial thrust generated during pump operation.
Formula :
-
Total Thrust = (Bowl Thrust Factor × Total Dynamic Head)
+ (Shaft Weight × Setting Length)
How to Calculate ?
- Enter the bowl thrust factor.
- Enter the total dynamic head.
- Enter the shaft weight.
- Enter the setting length.
- Click “Calculate” to get total thrust.
- Click “Reset” to clear all values.
