KSLV-I 2단에 적용된 킥모터는 피치, 요축 자세제어를 위해 고무와 보강제가 번갈아가며 적층된 플렉시블 씰을 사용하였다. 제작된 플렉시블 씰은 노즐에 조립되기 전에 플렉시블 씰의 성능을 확인하기 수압 구동 시험을 수행 하였다. 수압 시험을 통해 플렉시블 씰의 제작 상태를 확인하였으며, 압력 변화에 따른 피치, 요축의 구동 토크 및 축 방향 밀림량을 확인하였다. 수압 시험결과 제작된 플렉시블 씰의 구동 토크는 60kgf-m/deg이하이며, 축 방향 밀림량은 최대 6mm이하를 보이고 있다.

In many dynamic seals such as lip seal and compression packings, it is well known that wear occur at the surface of heat treated steel shaft as results of the intervened wear particle. It is widely understood that the dominant wear mechanism related in sealing surfaces is abrasive wear. However, little analytical and experimental studies about this problems have been done until now. In this paper, a contact analysis is carried out using MARC to investigate the wear mechanism in contact seal applications considering elastomeric seal, a elastic perfect-plastic micro-spherical particle and steel surface. Deformed seal shapes, contact and von-Mises stress distributions for various particle sizes and interference are showed. The maximum von-Mises stress within steel shaft was exceeded its yield strength and plastic deformation occurred at steel surface. Therefore, the sealing surface can be also worn by sub-surface fatigue due to wear particles together with well known abrasion. The numerical methods and models used in this paper can be applied in design of dynamic sealing systems, and further intensive studies are required.

Magnetic fluid seal is characterized by its simple design, low friction and being dustless. Those advantages are deduced from the fact that the sealing element is not a solid such as rubber or plastic but it is a fluid. Those are critical for application to a rotating shaft which is inserted into a vacuum chamber where high level of vacuum and cleanness are required. For the reason the magnetic fluid seal has become a standard for vacuum chambers for semiconductor and LCD processing. It should be noted that its sealing performance is sensitive to temperature. If necessary, water cooling should be considered. Thus anticipation of the temperature distribution of the magnetic fluid seal is important before applying it. In this paper an FEM analysis of the heat transfer has been executed and compared with experimental results. An overall convective heat transfer coefficient has been adopted for the analysis, which results in satisfactory consistency of the theoretical and experimental results.

리튬 이온 전지의 가스켓 재료로 사용되기 위해서는 내전해액성, 전기절연성, 낮은 압축 영구 줄음률, 비오염성, 내열성이 요구된다. Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)보다 압축 영구 줄음률이 우수한 고무의 적합성을 평가하기 위하여 Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), Nitrile Butadiene(NBR), Fluoro Elastomers(FKM), Methyl-Vinyl Silicone Rubber (VMQ), Fluorosilicone(FVMQ)을 이용하여 최적상태의 compound를 제작하고 특성을 살펴보았다. 시험편을 $80^{\circ}C$의 propylene carbonate액에 침적하여 경도 및 체적변화를 1,000시간까지 시간별로 측정하였다. EPDM과 VMQ가 내전해액성이 우수하였으며, 전기절연성에서도 체적저항 기준 $10^{10}{\Omega}cm$이상의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서, EPDM과 VMQ가 적절한 것으로 판단되었다.

연료전지 스택 작동환경에서의 열노화 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 다양한 고무 compound의 내열 및 압축 영구 줄음률의 평가를 실시하고, 스택의 장시간 운전을 통해 접합할 수 있는 대상액인 $H_2SO_4$, $H_2O$, LLC (Ethylene glycol : $H_2O=50:50$)에 대하여 장시간 평가를 실시하였다. NBR과 EPDM은 시간이 경과할수록 침적액의 변색하는 것을 알 수 있었으며, VMQ는 $H_2SO_4$ 분위기에서 시간에 따라 고무가 노화되는 것을 TGA, SEM, EDS 분석을 통하여 확인하였다.

This study analyzed the mechanical characteristics and evaluated their subsequent performance for two types of seals which reinforced characteristics with lower friction and anti-wear functions among the foremost important features in the automotive engine seals; one with the addition of glass fiber to PTFE(Polytetrafluoro ethylene); the other with the addition of self-lubricant molybdenumin addition to the glass fiber. Based on the configuration design of seal installed to the front part in the automotive engine, this study carried out interpretations on the stress and reaction for those two types of oil seals to compare the maximum stress and contact load generated from the seal steel, rubber and PTFE lip. This study also verified the stress concentration and anti-wear performance through the coefficient of friction, torque and durability test by producing two types of PTFE seals actually.

This paper deals with an experimental study on the dynamic behaviour of rubber oil seals when the interferences between the shaft and the seal lip as well as the dynamic eccentricities are present. The micro-separation of the sealing gap was observed with the aid of an image processing apparatus. The temperature of the seal lip edge, friction torque and the dynamic sealing gap profile are experimentally investigated for the initial interference and the shaft eccentricity. The data was simultaneously measured under the operation conditions. Experimental results show that, as the shaft speed is increased, the leakage of sealed fluids is increasing for a certain range of shaft speeds. The test data indicates that the shaft eccentricity clearly produces the gap separation between the shaft and the seal lip which is unable to follow the radial displacement of shaft as the shaft speed increases.

This paper deals with a numerical study of the dynamic response of rubber oil seals for rotating shaft when interference as well as static and dynamic eccentricities are present. In loss of contact conditions the dynamic curve of oil seals is numerically simulated using the FEM package MSC/NASTRAN. The direct integration method is selected to analyze the time domain response of the seal lip-shaft contact. The computed results based on the experimental data indicate that the increased rotating speed may produce the gap separation between lip edge of rubber seals and shaft. These results will be very useful in predicting the dynamic leakage due to contact behaviors of rubber oil seals under dynamic conditions.

Wheel bearings are important automotive parts that bear the vehicle weight and translate rotation motion; in addition, their seals are components that prevent grease leakage and foreign material from entering from the outside of the bearings. Recently, as the need for electric vehicles and eco-friendly vehicles has been emerging, the reduction in fuel consumption and $CO_2$ emissions are becoming the most important issues for automobile manufacturers. In the case of wheel bearings, seals are a key part of drag torque. In this study, we investigate the prediction of the drag torque taking into consideration the hyperelastic and viscoelastic material properties of automotive wheel bearing seals. Numerical analysis based on the finite element method is conducted for the deformation analyses of the seals. To improve the reliability of the rubber seal analysis, three types of rubber material properties are considered, and analysis is conducted using the hyperelastic material properties. Viscoelastic material property tests are also conducted. Deformation analysis considering the hyperelastic and viscoelastic material properties is performed, and the effects of the viscoelastic material properties are compared with the results obtained by the consideration of the hyperelastic material properties. As a result of these analyses, the drag torque is 0.29 Nm when the hyperelastic characteristics are taken into account, and the drag torque is 0.27 Nm when both the hyperelastic and viscoelastic characteristics are taken into account. Therefore, it is determined that the analysis considering both hyperelastic and viscoelastic characteristics must be performed because of its reliability in predicting the drag torque of the rubber seals.
