An Approach to Calculate Leak Channels and Leak Rates Between Metallic Sealing Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface topography of sealing interface is a key factor affecting sealing performance. In industry, it has always been desirable to optimize the performance of static seals by optimizing the surface topography. The evolution ...
The Effect of Anisotropy on the Percolation Threshold of Sealing Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The percolation threshold strongly affects sealing performance. This paper investigates the relationship between the percolation threshold and the rough surface anisotropy, which is represented by the Peklenik number, γ. ...
Closure to “Discussion of ‘The Effect of Anisotropy on the Percolation Threshold of Sealing Surfaces’” (Yang, Z., Liu, J., Ding, X., and Zhang, F., 2019, ASME J. Tribol., 141(2), p. 022203)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We welcome the comments offered by Papangelo et al. on our paper [1] and respond to them here. We established the percolation threshold under the effect of anisotropy and compared it with the theoretical results given by ...
