Abstract.The paper presents a FEM (finite element method) analysis
of a face seal. In the first part some theoretical aspects of this kind
of seals are presented. The next section emphasizes the FEM model, its
constrains and external loads. The analyses were run for different working
conditions (temperature, fluid pressure). In the third part the stress
and strain state is shown while some conclusions are derived from the results.
In the last section some peculiar aspects of contact region are revealed.
Key Words: Finite Element Method, Face Seal.
PROUČAVANJE FRONTALNIH SISTEMA ZAPTIVANJA
(FACE SEAL) METODOM KONAČNOG ELEMENTA
Rad prikazuje analizu frontalnog sistema zaptivanja (face seal) uz pomoć
metode konačnog elementa. Predstavlja se model realizovan putem ANSYS programa,
stanje tenzija (stress) i deformacije. Posebno se insistira na interakciji
koja nastaje u zoni kontakta i na uticaj temperature.
Ključne reči: Metod konačnih elemenata, frontalni sistem zaptivanja.
