Numerical Simulation of Lubricant Liquid Film of the Laser Surface Textured Micro-Pore Face Mechanical Seal

Article Preview

Abstract:

The flow field characteristics of lubricant liquid film of the laser surface textured micro-pore face mechanical seal were studied by Fluent software, and the effects of geometric parameters of micro pores and operating parameters on the sealing performance were analyzed. The results show that the hydrodynamic effect of the laser surface textured micro-pore face mechanical seal is very obvious, and micro-pores make the friction state between rotating ring and stationary ring change to fluid friction. It can also be found that the rotating speed, the medium pressure, the area density and the liquid film thickness have effect on the sealing performance, among these influence factors, the area density has the greatest effect on the sealing performance, and it should be 0.2-0.3.
