and
are the dimensionless pressure at
inlet and exit respectively. Because the shaft may be
eccentric with the seal ring (casing surface), the gap
that exists between the shaft and casing surfaces is
not uniform along the circumference of the casing.
When the width of the gap is measured along the
casing radius, it is referred to as the gap width h .

CONCLUSIONS
In this work the following conclusions are drawn:
1- The strip angle has a major effect on the
performance of the seal as well as on the
friction force. Since the larger the strip angle
the lesser the leakage rate and the larger the
friction force. The optimum value for
0
but for
minimum leakage rate is 90
mechanical stability and durability reasons it
should be less than that.
2- The spacing between the strips has a minor
effect on the leakage rate for small values of
the strip angle but for larger values say for
66
Strip angle.
Eccentricity ratio, = e / c .
Strip
shape factor.
90 0 strip angle.
5- The wider the strip the lesser the leakage
rate for all values of strip angle opposite
holds for the friction force.
