Design and Experimental Study on Divergent Magnetic Fluid Seal with Large Clearance and Dual Magnetic Sources. (30th January 2022) - Yang, Xiaolong
Abstract : In order to solve the leakage problem of rotating machinery under the condition of large clearance, a new type of divergent magnetic fluid sealing device with secondary magnetic source was designed. The magnetic field distribution in the clearance of the magnetic fluid seal was simulated by the finite element method of magnetic field, and the theoretical value of the sealing pressure resistance was calculated according to the pressure resistance theory of the divergent magnetic fluid seal. The influences of the volume of magnetic fluid injection, the number of teeth, the clearance, and the eccentricity of the rotating shaft on the pressure resistance abilities of divergent magnetic fluid seal were studied by experimental method and compared with the pressure resistance experimental value of ordinary magnetic fluid seal. The results showed that when the injection volume of magnetic fluid is more than 3 ml, the sealing pressure resistance ability of the magnetic fluid does increase greatly and tends to be stable gradually. The saturated magnetic fluid injection volume of divergent magnetic fluid seal with large clearance is 3 ml. With the increase of radial teeth, the pressure resistance ability of magnetic fluid seal first increases and then decreases. With the increase of axial teeth, the pressure resistance ability of magnetic fluid seal also increases. With the increase of radial clearance, the pressure resistance value of magnetic fluid seal first increases and then decreases. With the increase of axial clearance, the pressure resistance value of magnetic fluid seal decreases. The pressure resistance ability of divergent magnetic fluid seal is significantly higher than that of ordinary magnetic fluid seal.
