Experimental and Numerical Investigation of a Gas Compressor Windback Seal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effectiveness of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) commercial code to accurately predict the leakage rate for a windback seal was evaluated. The windback seal under consideration has a ...
Rotordynamic-Coefficients and Static (Equilibrium Loci and Leakage) Characteristics for Short, Laminar-flow Annular Seals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Test results are presented for laminar-flow seals that are representative of buffered-flow oil seals in centrifugal compressors. The seals are short (L∕D≅0.21), with a diameter of 117mm and a ...
