abstract:
A numerical code has been developed to determine the rotordynamic
coefficients of straight-through labyrinth gas seals in the case of a
single volume model.Some considerations are drawn concerning the position
of the sonic section when the flow is choked. Furthermore the influence of
kinematic viscosity varying with pressure has been considered.
The results are compared with the experimental and theoretical ones
available in the literature. The agreement between results is fairly good.
