Study on the Thermal Stress Couple Field of Nuclear Power Pump Mechanical Seal Based on ADINA

Abstract

In this paper, a two-dimensional axisymmetric thermal stress coupling model of mechanical seal’s rotator and stator components was established by ADINA, simplification and appropriate boundary constrained condition of stator and rotator was obtained by analyzing the contact state among the seal rings. It’s shown that the contact surface is equivalent to a resource of constant thermal, temperature of contact surface rises step by step and the location of the maximum temperature getting close to the midpoint within the contact surface according to the sliding time, the temperature gradient decrease along the worksheet so that the temperature decrease accordingly in a parabolic isogram.
