Abstract

This article explores the use of sealing rings in pump shafts for a longer-lasting and more reliable seal operation. Elastic, temperature, and plastic stresses resulting from temperature effects on the sealing rings in pump assemblies with shafts are calculated. The theoretical and experimental prevention of leakage in existing sealing rings in pump assemblies with shafts is investigated. Variations in construction designs of sealing rings with stress-strain optimization based on the Ritz method are studied. Methodologies for the calculation of pump shaft sealing ring designs are developed and implemented. Modeling, optimization, and calculation of the optimal seal design are conducted. The article explains the purpose and innovations of the research. The first section analyzes the reasons for leaks in pump shaft sealing rings. The second section discusses limitations and thermal stress due to temperature effects on the sealing rings. The third section focuses on researching the seal model and conducting studies to determine the optimal seal design. The final section examines the impact of new seals on leakage using various graphs and diagrams. Keywords: The mechanical seal of the pump assembly, the self-aligning bearing, wear, reliability, and stress.
