Abstract
The gas and lubrication oil leakages in reciprocating machinery systems including compressors and cooling units are usual problems that have not been well solved yet which normally influences the machine performance. This new magnetic sealing mechanism design is to solve these gaseous or fluid media leaking problems. In this new sealing mechanism, the rare-earth magnet steel can perform as a permanent magnet. Both computer-aided simulation and prototype testing verify that this sealing mechanism can effectively decrease the leaking problem in machinery systems including compressors and cooling systems. This new mechanism has better sealing performance than traditional rubber seal, diaphragm seal, corrugated pipe seal, and magnetic fluid seal. Figures 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3 display full view of new high-pressure gas compressive and filtration system, 3D cross-section view of new high-pressure gas compressive system, and 2D cross-section view of new high-pressure gas compressive system.
