Numerical Investigations on theBuckling Characteristics andAnalysis of Deformation andStress of Brush Seals

Brush seals are contact seals which are efficient and reliable and can beused in any rotatory machinery. A theoretical model of a brush seal wassuggested and used for a simulation study. Comparison between the resultsof the experiment and simulation is used to verify the accuracy of model.Following the basic simulation steps, more simulation will be done to geta further analysis. The further analysis will be studied in bristles’ bucklingcharacteristics, deformation and stress. The buckling, stress anddeformation is related to the brush seal’s performance. This work givesthe different geometry of bristle’s effect to its buckling characteristics andthe study of stress and deformation caused by fluid flow across bristlesduring operation.
