Lip type stern tube sealing systems have used in almost all the middle or large ships which are being constructed in these days. It seems that the pressure fluctuation of the seal ring interspace, the cross-section profile and the materials quality of the seal rings have great effects on the sealing fuction of this sealing system. In this paper, the mechanical movement of lip seal ring which plays the most important role in stern tube sealing system and the possibility of leakage caused by pressure fluctuation are studied by theory and experiment. Using the finite element method for the axi-symetric object which receives the torsional load, the displacement and stress analysis of the seal rings, and also the possibility of crack occurance is checked by theoretical analysis. If the force which seal ring lip periphery receives is too small, there will be the possibility of leakage caused by the pressure fluctuation of the seal ring interspace, and if this force is too large, the frictional force between the seal ring and the liner will become problematical. The possibility of leakage caused by hardening of seal ring materials and creep phenomena of tested seal rings are also examined. The trial seal rings were designed and manufactured using the program of displacement and stress analysis developed in this study and the experimental apparatus to test the trial seal rings was also designed and manufactured. This trial seal rings were fitted in the experimental apparatus which was made in the same form as an actual stern tube. The one side of this apparatus was filled with sea water and the other side of it was filled with the lubricating oil. The leakage of oil and sea water was checked and the temperature was measured, rotating the propeller shaft at the constant velocity by D.C. motor. It was proved that the trial seal rings made in Viton rubber functioned excellenty but the trial seal rings made in N.B.R. rubber had problem in its durability.

Vessel sealing is a medical device that converts electrical or ultrasonic energy into thermal energy and leads to seal, coagulate, and cut the vessel by protein modification within the walls or surrounding connective tissues. As most of surgeries have recently been conducted with minimally invasive surgery, the demand and market for vessel sealing are expected to get bigger. However, there is a problem that electrosurgical or ultrasonic surgical is applied and we have a high risk to evaluate the strength of seal, because the collateral and particular standards currently in force follows have not been establish. Therefore, in this study, we investigated some papers studied on the efficacy and safety of the device, the guidance of FDA and test papers previously conducted from 3 individual subject device made in Korea. We found there is a relationship between burst pressure and the performance of the device, therefore, we propose the vascular bursting pressure test for evaluating the safety and performance of the vessel sealing.

The hydraulic cylinder seals are used not only to protect leakage of the working fluids but also to prevent incoming of foreign particles into the system. Chromium plating is generally applied to improve corrosion and wear resistance. It has been noticed that sealing surface damage occurs due to the hard foreign/wear particles contained in the hydraulic oil. In this study, a three-bodied sliding contact problem related with a PTFE seal, a spherical particle and chrome-plated steel substrate is modeled to investigate the relations to wear mechanism. Using the nonlinear finite element software, MARC/MENTAT, the deformed shapes, the von Mises and first principal stress distributions with plating thickness were compared. The sealing surface was mainly abraded by hard particles embedded in the seal. The plastic deformation of the steel substrate decreased with thicker plating. Hence it could be more effective to coat the sealing surface of a hydraulic cylinder with a hard material such as TiN, TiC and DLC.

Static or dynamic elastomeric O-ring seals are installed between joining parts, and play key roles of high pressure-tightening. Sealing performance and structural safety of the O-ring are dependent on groove design, plain diameter, squeeze and applications such as pressure and temperature. In this study, to solve O-ring problem squeezed and highly pressurized under laterally one-sided constrained condition, hyperelastic FE analyses are performed, and FE results are compared with measured ones by computer-aided tomography, deformed shape and extrusion depth of the O-ring. Through the comparisons, FE analysis technique was verified. In order to evaluate design sensitivity, Taguchi method was used to select FE analysis cases. Adjustment parameters are clearance gap, groove comer radius, plain diameter and squeeze. By means of verified FE analysis technique, it has been analysed how the parameters have effects on contact stress fields, internal stress fields, and extrusion depths. Sealing performance has been evaluated based on contact stress fields and contact widths, and structural safety on internal stress and strain, extrusion lengths.

A mechanical face seal is a tribo-element intended to control leakage of working fluid at the interface between a rotating shaft and its housing. Leakage of working fluid decreases drastically as the clearance of the mating seal faces gets smaller. But the very small seal clearance results in an increased reduction of seal life because of high wear and heat generation. Therefore, in the design of mechanical face seals a compromise between low leakage and acceptable seal life is important, and it presents a difficult and practical design problem. A fluid film or sealing dam geometry of the seal clearance affects seal lubrication performance very much, and thereby it is one of the main design considerations. In this study the Reynolds equation for the sealing dam of mechanical face seals is numerically analyzed, using the Galerkin finite element method, which is readily applied to various seal geometries. Film pressures of the sealing dam are analyzed, including the effects of the seal face coning and tilt. Then, lubrication performances of the seals, such as opening forces, restoring moments, leakage, and dynamic coefficients, are calculated, and they are compared to the results obtained by the narrow seal approximation.

일반적인 임펄스 씰러의 시간제어 방식은 누적열(시작점의 온도가 상승)로 인해 포장품질의 저하를 초래하기 때문에 본 연구에서는 온도제어 방식을 이용한 임펄스 씰러의 누적열 상승 특성 및 포장품질을 조사하였다. 순간(Impulse) 방식의 특성상 아주 짧은 시간에 높은 온도를 올려주기 때문에 정확한 제어는 힘들지만, 가장 중요한 최고점의 온도를 일반 시간제어 대비 특정 편차 범위 내에서 유지하여 주기 때문에 우수한 포장품질을 확보하는 것이 가능하였다. 온도제어의 결과로 최고점의 온도는 128.9℃이며 최고와 최저의 오차율은 -4%에서 7.4%, 시간제어 최고점의 온도가 190.3℃로 설정온도인 120℃ 대비 70.3℃ 상승을 하였으며, 약 59%의 온도 상승률을 보였다. 온도제어와 시간 제어의 최고점의 온도차는 61.4℃로 뚜렷한 온도차를 보이며, 시간제어에서는 접착품질의 저하를 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 온도제어 방식은 시간제어 방식 대비 우수한 접착품질을 나타내었다. 본 연구개발을 통하여 임펄스 씰러의 온도제어 방식은 연속작업에서의 온도상승을 조절하고 최소화할 수 있는 효과적인 대안이 될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 한편, 시간제어 방식 임펄스 씰러의 온도제어 방식으로의 전환을 위해서는 오차율이 일정치 않은 문제, 온도제어를 위해 필요한 온도센서(박판센서)의 품질 확보 및 수급 문제, 온도센서 자체의 내구성 향상문제, 그리고 신규방식의 높은 가격 문제 등을 추가적으로 고려하여야 한다.

본 논문에서는 시일 설치면에서의 마멸발생기구를 정확하게 조사하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 미세입자가 시일과 스틸면 사이에 존재하는 경우의 접촉문제를 비선형문제해석 프로그램인 MARC를 사용하여 해석하였다. 이 결과, 시일의 재질은 스틸면에서의 응력분포와 변형형상에 아주 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 특히, PTFE와 같이 탄성계수가 높은 시일인 경우에 스틸 표면은 국부적으로 항복상태에 도달할 뿐만 아니라 시일을 제거한 후에도 영구변형과 함께 상당한 크기의 압축/인장 잔류응력이 존재하였다. 따라서, 시일과 스틸면 사이에 경질입자가 존재할 경우에는 연삭마멸과 함께 피로마멸이 발생할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 다양한 설계변수에 대한 추가연구가 요구된다.

본 논문은 국내 ISDN 망에서 상용전원 이상시에도 최소한의 음성서비스를 보장하기 위한 방법으로 망급전과 재충전 배터리를 사용하는 방안을 검토하였다. 망급전의 경우에서는 요구되는 선로전압 및 선로전류 등을 선로 종류 및 급전전력에 따라 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 이러한 시뮬레이션의 결과로서 현재 국내 ISDN 가입자 선로를 교체하지 않고는 망급전이 불가능한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 급전 방법으로는 재충전 배터리 사용이 타당한 것으로 판단되며, 재충전 배터리 사용시에는 선로매듭에서 발생하는 부식에 의하여 접촉저항이 증가하는 문제를 해결하기 위하여 별도의 전류를 사용할 필요가 있다. 이러한 전류를 실링(sealing) 전류라 하는데 국내에서 개발된 ISDN 교환기의 가입자보드에서 실링전류 및 망급전 용으로 설치된 급전용 전력조정기를 사용하여 실험하였다. 실험 결과 실링 전류의 공급이 물리계층의 클럭동기에 영향을 주지 않으며, 매우 짧은 시간동안만 실링전류의 영향이 나타남을 확인하였다. 이러한 실링전류의 실험결과는 선로를 간략하게 모델링하여 시뮬레이션 한 결과와 완전히 일치하는 것으로서 실험이 정당함을 시뮬레이션으로 확인하였다.

In this paper, the mechanical movement of lip seal-ring which plays the most important function in stern-tube sealing system and the possibility of leakage caused by pressure fluctuation are studied by theory and experiment. By the finite element method for axial symmetry object which receives the torsional bending load, the displacement and stress analysis of the seal-rings are executed for products of several representative manufacturers of seal-rings, and also the possibility of crack occurance are checked by theoretical analysis. A sample seal-ring id designed and manufactured using the program of displacement and stress analysis developed in this study and made an experimental apparatus to test the sampling seal-ring. The sampling seal-ring functioned excellently, but it had its durability and this problem may be solved by using the Viton instead of NBR.
