# Industrial Specification: Rotating Cleaning Head

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical component that rotates to apply cleaning fluids and mechanical action for decontaminating chemical drums.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-3.0 m/s tangential velocity at 50-300 RPM with 2-10 bar fluid pressure**. Failure boundary: **Exceeds 4.2 m/s tangential velocity at 420 RPM or 12.5 bar fluid pressure, causing bearing seizure at 120°C**, Mechanism: **Hydrodynamic bearing failure due to lubricant film collapse at Sommerfeld number &lt;0.001, combined with seal degradation from chemical attack**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **L10 Bearing Life & Fatigue Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $L_{10} = (\frac{C}{P})^p$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts mechanical lifecycle before component fatigue.
