Misalignment-Induced Micro-Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication in Rotary Lip Seals
In literature the lubrication of rotary lip seals is explained by hydrodynamic action on a microscopic scale. This theory assumes perfect concentricity between the seal and the shaft which in reality seldomly occurs. Focusing on the stern tube seals application, an analysis is performed on the pheno...
