SIMULATION CAPABILITIES

Application-specific seal simulation

Our finite element simulation tool models a K-port seal installed in an AS5202 port under your actual operating conditions, so you can see how a seal is expected to perform before it is manufactured. Using a proprietary material model, the tool predicts the following for any combination of application conditions:

  • Contact loads at the primary and secondary sealing surfaces
  • Pc/Pf ratios (contact pressure to system pressure)
  • Burst pressures for the seal and port assembly
  • Thermal cycling effects for cryogenic and high temperatures

Send us your dash size, hardware material(s), installation torque, temperature/pressure range, and cycling conditions, and our engineering team will run a simulation for your application.

Simulation requests are a complimentary service. Results are engineering estimates provided to support design review and are not a performance guarantee.
