NEW DESIGNS OF CENTRIFUGAL MAGNETIC FLUID SEALS FOR ROTATING SHAFTS IN MARINE TECHNOLOGY
PublikacjaThe centrifugal magnetic fluid seals have important advantage over the conventional centrifugal seals. They maintain very good sealing capacity at static, medium and high speeds of shaft rotation, with the increased seal lifetime, and minimum torque and static friction. These seals are particularly useful in cases when the angular shaft velocity varies and sometimes decreases to nearly or exactly zero, such as in flywheel applications,...

Friction Resistances in Internal Gear Pump with Modified Sickle Made of Plastic
PublikacjaThis paper presents modifications of the sickle insert (constructional and material) made in a gear pump with internal meshing. The introduced design change consists in making an incision in the sickle insert. Due to this treatment, the races of the insert are pressed against the apex wheels of the gears. The introduced compensation causes a smaller drop in pump efficiency with increasing discharge pressure. The article describes...

Large Hydrodynamic Thrust Bearings and Their Application in Hydrogenerators
PublikacjaLarge hydrodynamic thrust bearings are the bearings which, due to hydrodynamic lubrication, allow large axial load to be transferred from a moving part (shaft) to the stationary part via a thin layer of the lubricant (usually oil), thus providing extremely low friction and practically no wear. Hydrogenerators with vertical shafts are the most important application of large thrust bearings. Main design and scientific problems of...
