Measurements of leakage, power loss and rotordynamic force coefficients in a hybrid brush seal

This thesis presents measurements of power loss and leakage in a hybrid brush seal (HBS) for increasing pressure differentials and over a range of rotor speeds. The test HBS, Haynes-25 bristle pack [~850 bristles/cm] and 45o lay angle, is 166.4 mm in diameter and integrates 20-arcuate pads connected...
