Analytical and experimental evaluation of the leakage and stiffness characteristics of high pressure pocket damper seals

This thesis presents numerical predictions for the leakage and direct stiffness coefficients of pocket damper seals. Modifications made to earlier flow-prediction models are discussed. Leakage and static pressure measurements on straight-through and diverging configurations of eight-bladed and twel...
