Structural Analysis and Experimental Study on the Spherical Seal of a Subsea Connector Based on a Non-Standard O-Ring Seal

Structural Analysis and Experimental Study on the Spherical Seal of a Subsea Connector Based on a Non-Standard O-Ring Seal

Underwater oil and gas pipelines are prone to alignment differences and angle offsets during docking, and the spherical flange connector can address this problem. Its main function is to enable compensation of the different angles of the pipeline during docking and to apply a non-standard spherical...
