Abstract

This study introduces a methodology for analyzing the viscous effect on rubber shaft seals under dynamic eccentricity. It models the radial motion of the shaft seal and quantifies the viscous force arising from the viscous effect. A 3-D FEM with a noncircular shaft is established, equating viscous force to the interference distribution equation. Then, simulated mounting yield contact characteristics. Findings indicate increased interference with the viscous effect and heightened sensitivity of contact characteristics to eccentricity and rotational speed variations. This approach enhances precision in calculating rubber shaft seal contact characteristics under dynamic eccentricity.
