Multi-objective Structural Optimization of VL Seal Ring Based on Isight

Abstract

To obtain the best geometric size of VL sealing ring and improve its sealing performance, this paper carried out multi-objective optimization research on VL sealing ring by Isight software. Firstly, according to the working principle and geometric size of the VL seal ring, determined the constraint conditions, established the optimization objective equation, and given the value range of the structural parameters was. Then, verified the validity of the approximate model by fitting the radial basis neural network model provided. Finally, analyzed the sensitivity of influencing factors of oil film thickness at lip, and established the optimization module by NSGA-II multi-objective optimization algorithm. As a result, the best geometric size is obtained from multi-objective optimization, and the structure of VL seal ring has achieved the goal of more suitable high speed dynamic seal and longer service life.
