Non-linear finite element thermo-hydrodynamic analysis of oil ring seals used in high pressure centrifugal compressors

The analysis of oil seals is of great concern for the proper design of high pressure centrifugal compressors, because they can have significant influence on the dynamic stability of the compressor rotor. The lack of adequate analytical tools highlight the need for this type of study. An analytical t...
