Computational fluid dynamics and thermal analysis of leaf seals for aero-engine application by Fico, V, Pekris, M, Barnes, C, Jha, R, Gillespie, D

“…The leaf seal tested at the Oxford Osney Laboratory is used for the study. Simulations for four seal axial Reynolds number are conducted; for each value of the Reynolds number, leaf tip-rotor contact, and clearance are considered. …”
