Numerical Simulation of Static Seal Contact Mechanics Including Hydrostatic Load at the Contacting Interface
A finite element model of a static seal assembled in its housing has been built and is utilized to study how the seal deforms under varying loading conditions. The total contact load on the sealing surface is balanced by the sealed fluid pressure and the friction between the seal and the housing sid...
