Performance of Externally Pressurized Dry Gas Seal

Article Preview

Abstract:

By adding the flow rate of throttle orifice to conventional stable externally pressurized gas lubrication equation, the Reynolds equation for externally pressurized dry gas seal with orifice compensation is established. The solution of the equation is studied by functional extremum algorithm and finite element method, and the computer numerical simulation is carried out in Matlab software. The effects of air supply pressure, numbers and diameter of throttle orifice, on face opening force and gas film stiffness are discussed in detail.
