Refrigerated Dynamic Seal to 6.9 MPA (1000 psi)

摘要

The self sealing, high shear flow passage approach which was extended to large pressure differences was studied. In a refrigerated seal the fluid to be sealed flows through a refrigerated housing or constriction. The fluid can be frozen to the housing during the transient phase. Under steady state conditions the refrigerated seal proves to be a dynamic low leakage seal. The concept is extended to pressure differences of 6.9 MPa.
