Empirical research on the sliding radial seals applicable to CP propellers
Abstract
Laboratory investigations of the influence of bearing sleeve transverse stiffness on operation effectiveness of the sliding radial seals applicable to ship CP (controllable pitch) propellers, are presented. The tests were carried out on the full-scale seal which cooperated at first with the typical, i.e. thick- walled, bearing sleeve and then the thin- walled one. Their results confirmed that development of a new generation of such seals, but lighter and more effective, is possible.
