Measured results for a new hole-pattern annular gas seal incorporating larger diameter holes, comparisons to results for a traditional hole-pattern seal and predictions /

To reduce manufacturing cost and time, a hole-pattern seal incorporating holes of larger diameter (12.19 mm (0.48 inches)) has been proposed. Experimental leakage and rotordynamic coefficients for this new seal design are presented. This experimental data was compared to theoretical results genera...
