Benefits of technology

[0021] This invention discloses a large-diameter, multi-layered, coupled dry gas sealing device. By employing a multi-stage sealing end-face structure, this invention effectively suppresses heat load concentration and deformation at the end face. Compared to traditional single-end-face dry gas seals, the pressure gradient distribution mechanism within the sealing end face is more rational, effectively reducing axial deformation. This invention features a multi-stage sealing end face on the rotating ring and a corresponding sealing end face on the stationary ring. Rotation of the shaft drives the rotating ring, and the sealing medium flowing from the front comb-tooth seal sequentially flows into the multi-stage dynamic pressure grooves of the rotating ring, forming a multi-stage high-pressure region that forces open the stationary ring to form a sealing gas film. This achieves a sealing effect on the working medium on the medium side, effectively reducing the deformation of the rotating ring end face, enhancing the rigidity of the sealing gas film, reducing the volume of the dry gas sealing device for large-diameter shafts, enabling rapid start-up and shutdown of the dry gas seal, ensuring sealing strength under frequent load changes, reducing operating and maintenance costs, and improving operational stability. The sealing device in this invention can quickly establish a high-rigidity gas film to eliminate start-stop contact, significantly accelerating the establishment process of the high-rigidity sealing gas film. In the dry gas seal start-up stage, the rotating shaft drives the rotating ring, which in turn drives the multi-stage dynamic pressure groove to synchronously induce the fluid dynamic pressure effect, so that each sealing end face generates a stable gas film with high load-bearing rigidity in a short time, completely eliminating the risk of sealing end face contact caused by insufficient dynamic pressure in the low speed stage, and achieving zero-wear start-stop.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fluid machinery shaft end sealing technology, specifically relating to a large-diameter multi-layer structure coupled dry gas sealing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of fluid machinery engineering, modern rotating machinery continues to evolve towards larger shaft diameters, higher power, and extreme operating parameters, leading to unprecedented technical challenges for shaft end sealing systems. Traditional sealing methods, such as labyrinth seals, packing seals, and other contact mechanical seals, are limited by inherent defects. They rely on solid friction contact, are sensitive to operating conditions, and suffer from excessively high seal outer diameter linear velocity at high speeds, making it difficult to meet the demands of high-parameter operating conditions. Especially in high-temperature, high-pressure, and frequent start-stop scenarios, traditional seals generally suffer from bottlenecks such as uncontrolled leakage, increased friction, severe thermal deformation, and soaring maintenance costs, seriously restricting equipment reliability, long-term operating capability, and system stability.

[0003] Dry gas seals, as a type of non-contact hydrodynamic lubrication seal, achieve zero-friction operation through a micron-level sealing gas film formed on the sealing end face. Theoretically, they possess advantages such as extremely low leakage, no frictional loss, low system power consumption, and long service life, making them the mainstream solution for shaft end sealing in high-end rotating machinery. However, engineering practice shows that conventional dry gas seals have significant limitations under transient start-stop conditions. At low speeds, the weakening of the hydrodynamic effect leads to delayed gas film establishment, posing a risk of instantaneous contact at the sealing end face. Secondly, frictional heat accumulation and delayed heat dissipation may induce localized high-temperature areas, accelerating thermoelastic deformation of the sealing ring and even thermal cracking failure. Thirdly, insufficient sealing film stiffness during transient pressure fluctuations may cause leakage to exceed design values, impacting the environment. Existing technologies mostly alleviate these problems through groove optimization or material upgrades, but for large-diameter dry gas seals, a novel dry gas sealing device is needed to ensure sealing strength under frequent start-stop conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing gas sealing devices in ensuring sealing strength under frequent start-stop conditions, the present invention aims to provide a dry gas sealing device with a large-diameter, multi-layered structure coupling. This device can effectively reduce the deformation of the dynamic ring end face, enhance the rigidity of the sealing gas film, reduce the volume of the dry gas sealing device for large-diameter shafts, achieve rapid start-stop of the dry gas seal, ensure sealing strength under frequent load changes, reduce operation and maintenance costs, and improve operational stability.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0006] A large-diameter, multi-layered, coupled dry gas sealing device includes a rotating ring, a stationary ring, a rotating ring seat, a stationary ring seat, a rotating shaft, a front-end comb seal, and a dry gas sealing seat.

[0007] The rotating ring seat is fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The rotating ring and the stationary ring are installed on the rotating ring seat in a relatively mating manner. The stationary ring seat is installed behind the stationary ring. The rotating ring seat is set on the rotating shaft. A front comb-tooth seal is set on the outer side of the rotating ring seat in the radial direction. A dry gas seal seat is set on the outer side of the front comb-tooth seal in the radial direction. The rotating ring, stationary ring, rotating ring seat, stationary ring seat and the center of the rotating shaft are located on the same straight line. The rotating ring is provided with a multi-stage rotating ring sealing end face. The stationary ring is provided with a multi-stage stationary ring sealing end face. A sealing gas film is formed between the sealing end faces of the rotating ring and the stationary ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of stages n of the rotating ring sealing end face is 1 to 10, with the rotating ring sealing end face closest to the rotating shaft being the first stage. In the radial direction, the number of stages increases sequentially as the radius increases.

[0009] Furthermore, the stationary ring sealing end face and the dynamic ring sealing end face are mated together in the axial direction.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a stationary ring pusher ring, with the stationary ring seat mounted behind the stationary ring via a spring and the stationary ring pusher ring fitting against the back of the stationary ring.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a bushing clamping component, which is arranged opposite to the rotating ring seat on the rotating shaft.

[0012] Furthermore, the sealing end face of the dynamic ring has an included angle α in the radial direction. q Angle α q The maximum value is 0° to 45°, q = 1, 2, 3..., n, where q represents the sealing end face level.

[0013] Furthermore, a dynamic pressure groove is provided on the sealing end face of the dynamic ring.

[0014] Furthermore, the dynamic pressure grooves are evenly arranged in the circumferential direction, with several dynamic pressure grooves on each sealing end face. The groove shape is T-shaped groove, spiral groove, or tree-shaped groove, and the groove depth is h. gq The range is 1 to 50 μm, and q = 1, 2, 3..., n, where q represents the sealing end face level.

[0015] Furthermore, the stationary ring sealing end face has an included angle β in the radial direction. q The included angle β of the stationary ring sealing end face q The angle α between the sealing end face of the rotating ring and the radial direction exists. q equal.

[0016] Furthermore, the outer diameter r of each sealing end face dmq Calculated using the following formula:

[0017] r dmq =r ri +(r ro -rri ) / n*q

[0018] Where, r ri r is the inner diameter of the moving ring. ro Let q be the outer diameter of the moving ring, q = 1, 2, 3..., n, where q represents the number of sealing end face stages, and the outer diameter r of the last stage sealing end face is... dmn The outer diameter is equal to the outer diameter r of the moving ring. ro ;

[0019] The thickness of the sealing gas film is h. q q = 1, 2, 3..., n, where q represents the number of sealing end face stages, h q The range is 1–100 μm.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0021] This invention discloses a large-diameter, multi-layered, coupled dry gas sealing device. By employing a multi-stage sealing end-face structure, this invention effectively suppresses heat load concentration and deformation at the end face. Compared to traditional single-end-face dry gas seals, the pressure gradient distribution mechanism within the sealing end face is more rational, effectively reducing axial deformation. This invention features a multi-stage sealing end face on the rotating ring and a corresponding sealing end face on the stationary ring. Rotation of the shaft drives the rotating ring, and the sealing medium flowing from the front comb-tooth seal sequentially flows into the multi-stage dynamic pressure grooves of the rotating ring, forming a multi-stage high-pressure region that forces open the stationary ring to form a sealing gas film. This achieves a sealing effect on the working medium on the medium side, effectively reducing the deformation of the rotating ring end face, enhancing the rigidity of the sealing gas film, reducing the volume of the dry gas sealing device for large-diameter shafts, enabling rapid start-up and shutdown of the dry gas seal, ensuring sealing strength under frequent load changes, reducing operating and maintenance costs, and improving operational stability. The sealing device in this invention can quickly establish a high-rigidity gas film to eliminate start-stop contact, significantly accelerating the establishment process of the high-rigidity sealing gas film. In the dry gas seal start-up stage, the rotating shaft drives the rotating ring, which in turn drives the multi-stage dynamic pressure groove to synchronously induce the fluid dynamic pressure effect, so that each sealing end face generates a stable gas film with high load-bearing rigidity in a short time, completely eliminating the risk of sealing end face contact caused by insufficient dynamic pressure in the low speed stage, and achieving zero-wear start-stop.

[0022] Furthermore, when the sealing medium flows through the progressively depressurized dynamic pressure groove, the kinetic energy is converted into controllable pressure energy rather than frictional heat energy. Combined with the geometric structure of the dynamic pressure groove, it guides the flow of the sealing medium and optimizes the temperature field distribution on the sealing end face.

[0023] Furthermore, in this invention, multi-stage dynamic pressure grooves are provided within the multi-stage sealing end face, which can maintain precise leakage control under variable load conditions. When the system encounters pressure fluctuations or sudden speed changes, the adaptive pressure feedback generated by each stage of dynamic pressure grooves can better balance the disturbance and control the leakage within a certain range.

Since this embodiment is a single-stage sealing end face, the root radius of the first-stage dynamic pressure groove is 106.6mm.

[0060] In this embodiment 1, a sealing gas film exists between the moving ring 1 and the stationary ring 12. The thickness of the primary gas film is h1 = 50 μm. For ease of observation, the thickness is magnified 1000 times in the axial direction when drawing. Figure 3 As shown.

[0061] Example 2

[0062] like Figures 5-6 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a dry gas sealing device with a large shaft diameter and multi-layer structure coupling. Compared with embodiment 1, in this embodiment 2, the moving ring 1 is provided with 3 levels of moving ring sealing end faces. The first level is near the rotating shaft.

For ease of observation, the thickness is magnified 1000 times in the axial direction when drawing. Figure 6 As shown.

[0066] The working process of the aforementioned large-diameter, multi-layered coupled dry gas sealing device is as follows: A dynamic pressure groove 11 is provided on the rotating ring 1. When the dry gas seal starts to operate, the sealing medium mixes with the high-temperature medium flowing through the front comb seal 9 for initial cooling, and then flows into the rotating ring 1 and the stationary ring 2. When the space between the rotating ring 1 and the stationary ring 2 is filled with the sealing medium, the sealing medium first fills the dynamic pressure groove 11, starting from the first-stage sealing end face, and sequentially fills the dynamic pressure grooves of the lower-stage sealing end faces. When the pressure is sufficient, it pushes open the stationary ring 2, forming a stable sealing gas film, ensuring the stable operation of the dry gas seal. When operating conditions such as rotational speed need to change, the multi-stage sealing end face structure can effectively ensure the constant stiffness of the dry gas seal during variable load processes. At the same time, by setting a multi-stage sealing end face structure, the degree of thermoelastic deformation of the conventional dry gas seal sealing end face can be reduced, effectively suppressing the concentration and deformation of end face heat load, and reducing the risk of instability and reduced reliability of the sealing equipment.

[0067] This invention features a multi-stage sealing end face on the rotating ring. Several dynamic pressure grooves are engraved along the circumference of the rotating ring's sealing end face. A corresponding sealing end face is provided on the stationary ring. Rotation of the shaft drives the rotating ring to rotate, and the sealing medium flowing from the front comb-tooth seal sequentially flows into the multi-stage dynamic pressure grooves of the rotating ring, forming a multi-stage high-pressure zone that forces open the stationary ring to form a sealing gas film. This achieves the sealing effect on the working medium side, effectively reducing the deformation of the rotating ring end face, enhancing the rigidity of the sealing gas film, reducing the volume of the dry gas sealing device when the shaft diameter is large, enabling rapid start-up and shutdown of the dry gas seal, ensuring sealing strength under frequent load changes, reducing operating and maintenance costs, and improving operational stability.
