Abstract
The flow field within the lubricating film of a rotating shaft lip seal containing microundulations is analyzed numerically. The results demonstrate that the action of the microundulations can prevent leakage through the seal. The effects on leakage rate of shaft speed, undulation amplitude and wavelength, shear deformation of the undulations, flattening of the undulations, and axial lip profile are presented.
