Modeling the Pumping Behavior of Macroscopic Lead Structures on Shaft Counterfaces of Rotary Shaft Seals

The leak tightness of the sealing system rotary shaft seal is based on the formation of an active back-pumping effect of the sealing ring. Here, the sealing ring pumps the fluid in the sealing gap back into the housing. However, this active sealing mechanism is disturbed by so-called “lead structure...
