Development Of A Noncontacting Seal For Gas/Liquid Applications Using Wavy Face Technology
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1996)
A seal has been developed and tested that incorporates a circumferential wave pattern with a sealing dam formed on a SiC face, using a proprietary process. When run against a flat carbon face, laboratory tests show that ...
Improvement Of A High Temperature Bellows Seal
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
An Inconel 718 metal bellows seal has been developed to meet the demands for high temperature applications in corrosive media such as high Sulphur bearing crude oil. Finite element analysis was used to develop concepts ...
Magnetic Fluid Seal System For Control Of Pump Fugitive Emissions
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1993)
Pump fugitive emissions can now be controlled to near zero levels by the use of a simplified dual seal system. A magnetic fluid secondary seal traps any vapors that leak past the primary mechanical seal. This arrangement ...
The Use Of Wavy Face Technology In Various Gas Seal Applications
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)
Wavy face technology in mechanical face seals is the use of circumferential waves manufactured into a seal face. This unique wavy shape is bidirectional, can be used in liquids, gases or combination, and incorporates a ...
