Porosity Modeling of Brush Seals
Journal of Tribology, 1997A new model for predicting leakage flows through the bristle pack of brush seals is developed. In the model, the bristle pack is treated as a porous medium. Good agreement is demonstrated between predictions from a one-dimensional form of the model and a wide range of experimental data available from the literature, for seals with a bristle pack to ...

Insights Into Frictional Brush Seal Hysteresis
Volume 7B: Heat Transfer — General Interest/Additive Manufacturing Impacts on Heat Transfer; Internal Air Systems; Internal Cooling, 2023Abstract Brush seals offer a superior sealing effectiveness compared to labyrinth seals. However, widespread use of brush seals is constrained by deleterious behaviors such as pressure-stiffening and hysteresis. For the latter, the bristles bend during the shaft incursion process and do not fully recover during the shaft retraction ...

The use of Brush Seals continues to expand in both the Power Generation and the Aerospace markets and we continue to learn more about their functionality. This paper continues on from our previous papers and in particular AIAA 2002-3794 which examines, analytically and experimentally the effects of Hysteresis.
