Abstract
This investigation presents the analysis of customarily neglected centrifugal inertia effects in fluid-film-lubricated misaligned radial face seals. The forces and moments that act upon the primary seal ring due to axial translation and angular rotation are obtained for the complete range of angular misalignment. Lubricant inertia is found to be helpful in attaining the dynamic stability in the performance of misaligned face seals. It is also helpful in minimizing the wobbling of the primary seal ring and the leakage across the seal.
