Analyzing Seals With Two-Phase Flows
Abstract
SEAL computer program analyzes steady-state performance of face seal with two-phase leakage flow. Calculates general trends of performance under both low- and high-leakage conditions and, by extrapolation, behavior in intermediate region. Parameters investigated include subcooling, coning of seal faces, speeds of rotation, conductivities of seal materials, and widths of seal faces. Program incorporates idealized mathematical models, and based on finite-difference approach. Written in FORTRAN 77.
