Description

Thanks to its flexible design, a wide variety of seal geometries can be tested under numerous operating conditions. For example, labyrinth seals and adaptive seals.

Possibilities

• Investigation of the flow behavior of seals - Determination of the leakage mass flow through seals of all kinds
• A wide variety of seal tips and layer structures
• Flexible axial and radial gaps possible
• Automatic variation of the pressure boundary condition
• Maximum pressure: 8 bar
• Maximum flow rate 210g/s
• Test bench width 300mm

Measurement technology & control

• Pressure transducer
• Automatic valve control
• Temperatures (type T thermocouples)
• Housing expansion
• Mass flows (measuring orifice)
• LabVIEW
