2 Introduction In centrifugal pumps, annular seals reduce secondary leakage. Seals also have a significant impact on a pump rotordynamic performance. For small amplitude (e) rotor motions the seal reaction force (F X, F Y ) is modeled with constant force coefficients (K,C,M): F e F e X 2 K c M Y 2 k C m Multistage Barrel Process Pump ω Rotor whirl frequency. K, k Direct/cross-coupled stiffness. C, c Direct/cross-coupled damping. M, m Direct/cross-coupled added mass. Circumferentially Grooved Seal 2
3 Bulk flow model (BFM) for seal analysis Based on Hirs BFM, Marquette and Childs (1996) developed a 3 CV (control volume) BFM for a liquid grooved seal: Blasius friction factor: f nre m n and m are empirical coefficients. Penetration angle (α): In the groove section, the flow divides: (1) (CV II) through-flow (jet-like) (2) (CV III) deep cavity with recirculation zone. A stream line separates flows and a defines penetration angle to cavity wall. α C r Velocity Distribution in a grooved seal α 3
4 Background for current development Predicted BFN force coefficients for a shallow grooved seal (groove depth ~ C r, L/D>1) used to estimate dynamic performance of a commercial pump correlation with shop test results is poor. Reasons for discrepancy restrictive assumptions in three-cv BFM: wall shear stress, single vortex, etc. Friction factor derived from tests for short length (L/D) seals. Penetration angle (α) not readily known a flow condition. Justification: precise predictions for pump stability necessitate of a more accurate analysis tool. 4
5 CFD solution Solving Navier Stokes equations with an appropriate turbulence flow model could give accurate predictions of dynamic force coefficients (in lieu of test data). Using CFD to predict force coefficients of complex geometry seals is becoming common practice. CFD Predictions Avoid simplifying assumptions: (wall shear stress, single vortex, etc.) No empirical constants needed; Computationally intensive. Seal forces on whirling rotor 5

41 Conclusion CFD MODIFIED BULK FLOW ANALYSIS FOR CIRCUMFERENTIALLY SHALLOW GROOVED LIQUID SEALS 41
42 Conclusion A BFM modified with CFD derived friction factors (f) and penetration angle (α) offers an improvement in predicted rotor dynamic force coefficients over those of an original BFM. Friction factors on land and groove sections are different, f Land 3 f Groove ; Penetration angle (α) is a function of the seal operating conditions β = ΔP/[½ ( R) 2 ]. Paper GT α has upper and lower bounds. Increasing the rotor speed or reducing the pressure drop raises α. The modified BFM program shows an accuracy comparable to the CFD method and is much quicker in delivering seal leakage and force coefficients. 42
