[0119] A kind of rotary machinery non-contact seal test device, mainly used to test the sealing performance of various spiral seals or labyrinth seals and other non-contact seals.

[0120] As shown in Figure 1 First, start the variable frequency motor driving the pump shaft 1, and make the pump shaft 1 work normally at the required test speed.

[0121] When the test device works, according to the test requirements, the liquid with certain pressure enters the cavity formed by the pump shaft 1, the axial seal seat 34, the radial seal left side sealing element 28 and the axial seal inner side sealing element 29 through the inlet pipeline 11.

[0122] The liquid with certain pressure flows into the sealing gap formed by the axial seal outer side sealing element 31 and the axial seal inner side sealing element 29 through threads or labyrinth grooves, and then flows out to the outlet cavity formed by the pump shaft 1, the axial seal seat 34 and the second mechanical seal suspension 35 after a certain length of sealing cooperation, and then flows out through the first outlet pipeline 6.

[0123] According to the test requirements, one or more test holes are arranged on the axial seal outer side sealing element 31 and the axial seal seat 34 at certain intervals, and the first pressure temperature sensor 8 is arranged in the test hole.

[0124] The pressure liquid flows into the gap between the left radial seal 28 and the right radial seal 13 from the right, and then flows out after a certain length of the sealing fit section, enters the outlet cavity formed by the pump shaft 1 and the first mechanical seal suspension 24, and then flows out through the second outlet pipeline 17. The pressure and flow of the liquid leaking out of the sealing fit section can be measured through the third pressure gauge 18 and the third flow meter 19 arranged on the second outlet pipeline 17. One or more test holes are arranged on the right radial seal 13 and the first mechanical seal suspension 24 at a certain radius according to the test requirements, and the second pressure and temperature sensor 16 is arranged in the test hole. The second pressure and temperature sensor 16 can measure the pressure and temperature of the liquid at the test point of the sealing fit, and the pressure drop and viscosity change at the test point can be calculated through the pressure and temperature.

[0125] By opening or closing the left outlet valve 3 and the second valve 21 on the first outlet pipeline 6 and the second outlet pipeline 17, the corresponding test section can be turned on or off, and the axial sealing or radial sealing performance test can be carried out separately or simultaneously. The sealing performance test at different rotating speeds can be realized through the variable frequency motor. The left radial seal 28 and the right radial seal 13, the outer axial seal 31 and the inner axial seal 29 can be replaced according to different thread or labyrinth seal parameters.

[0126] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0127] 1. For spiral seal or labyrinth seal, axial sealing test can be carried out. The axial sealing section is arranged along the axial direction and includes an inner seal and an outer seal. The outer surface of the inner seal rotates with the shaft, and the inner surface of the outer seal is provided with a spiral groove or an annular sealing tooth to form a sealing combination. The outer seal is provided with a pressure and temperature measuring hole to measure the liquid pressure and temperature at different positions of the sealing surface. The inner and outer seals can be replaced with different inner diameters and different parameter spiral or labyrinth seal combinations according to test requirements.

[0128] 2. For spiral seal or labyrinth seal, radial sealing test can be carried out. The radial seal is arranged in the radial direction and includes a left radial seal and a right radial seal. The left radial seal rotates with the shaft. The left and right radial seal surfaces are respectively provided with annular sealing teeth to form a labyrinth seal combination. The right end seal is provided with a pressure and temperature measuring hole to measure the liquid pressure and temperature at different positions of the sealing surface. The left and right seals can be replaced with different sealing distances and different parameter labyrinth seal combinations according to test requirements.

[0129] 3. Liquid flows in from the middle inlet, and the liquid pressure can be provided by an external pressure pump according to the test requirements. The pressure liquid flows into the left cavity through the sealing gap of the axial sealing section to the left, and flows out through the left outlet pipeline, which is provided with a flow meter to measure the leakage of the axial sealing section under different inlet pressure conditions. The pressure liquid flows into the right cavity through the sealing gap of the radial sealing section to the right, and flows out through the right outlet pipeline, which is provided with a flow meter to measure the leakage of the radial sealing section under different inlet pressure conditions. The temperature measurement can obtain the change of the liquid temperature in the sealing surface at the measurement point, obtain the change of the sealing liquid viscosity, and further obtain the relationship between different sealing teeth or helical groove parameters and sealing performance.

[0130] 4. The test system can simultaneously perform axial sealing and radial sealing performance tests, and can also separately perform axial sealing and radial sealing performance tests by closing the left outlet valve or the right outlet valve.

[0131] 5. The specific matching form of the axial sealing and radial sealing matching surfaces of the test system can be changed, such as the gap sealing commonly used in centrifugal pumps.
