Computational fluid dynamics and thermal analysis of leaf seals for aero-engine application

<p>Aero-engine gas turbine performance and efficiency can be improved through the application of compliant shaft seal types to certain sealing locations within the secondary air system. Leaf seals offer better performance than traditional labyrinth seals, giving lower leakage flows at design...
