Abstract

The object of the work discussed in this paper was to develop a reliable helium gas shaft seal for use in an electric motor-driven, liquid oxygen pump on a space vehicle. The development effort covered tests on two basically different face seal designs, one with an attached carbon face and the other with a floating lap-fitted carbon face. Several bellows vibration damping devices and various seal material combinations were investigated.
