Abstract
As the lubrication performance of sealing structures in rodless open cylinders varies with sliding velocity, the concept of a critical velocity is proposed based on the aforementioned characteristics and the lubrication performance of sealing structure is analysed. A finite-element model of sealing structure is established and the oil film load under dynamic lubrication condition is obtained. A two-dimensional theoretical model of lubrication performance in sealing structure is established based on the proposed critical velocity. The influence on critical velocity of parameters including pre-compression, geometry size and microscopic morphology is analysed. Considering surface microscopic morphology, generation of heat by friction, heat flux distribution and other factors, a three-dimensional numerical model of lubrication performance of sealing structure is established to reveal the influence of texture mechanism on lubrication performance. As concluded, with the increase of pre-compression, the lip angle and the temperature of lubrication oil, the critical velocity increases. The three-dimensional microscopic morphology of seal ring is found to pose obvious influence on critical velocity, and the isotropic microscopic morphology tends to form total lubrication under the same conditions.
