Could someone help me to understand how to calculate oil flow rate on the main bearing of the crank-shaft of a car?
Thank you
Best regards

General guidelines for oil flow through a bearing is:

Q = 0.00003 to 0.00005 D x B.

Not sure if this isn't applicable to bearings in a car.
 
Thank you Jmoritz
Very kind
