Numerical and Experimental Investigation of the Sealing Effect of a Specific Labyrinth Seal Structure

A numerical simulation and experimental study were performed to investigate the sealing effect of the labyrinth seal used in a wheel-side reducer. A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model was established based on the labyrinth structure. The effects of the temperature and viscosity of...
