Interesting specs here. I am a Master Tool and Diemaker, and taught college level Metrology for over 20years. In my intro classes I did demonstrations where I would calibrate electronic gages capable of accuracy to 50 millionths of an inch. The temperature in a Metrology lab is always strictly maintained at (20 degrees C) 68 degrees F. In a simple demo, I would go over the calibration of the gage, and use gage blocks to measure and record the size at laboratory temperature. After noting the sizes of random gage blocks, I would hand them to several students to hold in their hands tightly. I also left some of the gage blocks on the granite plate, in ambient air where they were measured initially. Then after demoing calibration and applications, I would check the untouched gage blocks. These remained at the values initially measured.
I then asked students to set the gage blocks they had been holding in their hands, and remeasured those. Many of those blocks had grown +.002” just influenced by body temperature.
In the trade, we often had to fit punch and die, or mold halves within +/- .0002. This is always done at 68 degrees F, the idea being, if they match at 68 degrees, they both will grow at the same rate, being the same type of tool steel. Beryllium cores, fit to steel was another matter, or other materials used for slides, and cores. The operating temperature of a tool (mold / die) was of paramount importance to maintaining the fit of the components. Materials such as nylon would flash at more than .0005” (half a thousandth), so initial fit was critical. Materials such as 380 aluminum were forgiving up to a .003” initial fit. Those tools ran as hot as 580 degrees F, in critical areas in service. Water or oil cooling was employed to reduce molding/ casting surfaces to 70 to 100 degrees F. Many of the tools we built used electronic components to regulate tip temperatures (i.e. hot tip runner systems) and we always had to do the math to calculate tip growth relative to core growth and subsequent shut off clearances.
My point here is, when looking at mechanical fits with no thrust adjustment, the areal expansion (∆A/A0) depends on the material, including any gasketing, spacers etc. (but this says no thrust adjustment) and it’s coefficient of thermal expansion, and the normal operation temperature of the machine.
When looking at flywheel and capstan end clearances, operating temperature has to be considered.
As with any fit the molecular size of the lubrication used (i.e. weight of the oil, or dry lubricant also plays into it). In this case, no lubricant is used so the fit remains strictly an areal fit.
My two cents.
