The analysis of static stability at an inlet pressure of 10 MPa for the basic seal design showed that the static radial force in the range of radial movements of the shaft from 0 to 50% of the clearance is centering, even though the inlet part of the seal clearance has a confusor, and the outlet part has diffuser form. However, the dynamic coefficients of the fixed sealing ring have a negative value of direct stiffness but positive values of direct and cross-coupled damping and crosscoupled stiffness. Verifying computational 2D and 3D models with experimental results from the literature showed that the maximum relative error does not exceed 10.7% for the hydrostatic pressure, 18% for the clearance, and 8.6% for the leakage value. Simultaneously, according to the trend, all calculated dependencies are identical to the experimental results. popup.nrat_date 2025-03-24 Close
