In this paper, a structural form called double-sided spiral groove gas face seal is considered.
Steady-state performances, such as film load-carrying capacity and film stiffness, of gas face …

The sliding layer created during operation of the expanded graphite–steel combination has
had a huge impact on the effectiveness of the friction process, and thus on the sustainable …

The resource of stuffing box seal is determined not only by the unit design and by the
conditions of its operation, but also essentially depends on the correct choice of stuffing box …

This paper describes an improved process for manufacturing a positive-locking hub-shaft
joint. The process involves forming coatings on the contacting surfaces of the steel parts …

In the article, as a result of comparative tests, it is established that steel samples with a
coating applying the electrospark alloying method (ESA) with a BK6 hard-alloy electrode …

Noncontacting mechanical seals with various kinds of face surface modifications have
established their position in the sealing technique. Over the last few years, a lot of works …

The reasons for reducing the durability of sliding bearings and the factors formed both at the
stage of their manufacture and during operation are considered. Taking into account the …

According to the results of the finite element analysis of the magnetic field of the liquid metal
seal designed to protect the bearing assembly from external aggressive influences, it is …

The article describes a new method of forming the protective coatings of steel parts
operating under conditions of abrasive wear both in general mechanical engineering, the …

The paper discusses the process of normal friction and wear as a result of fretting corrosion,
as well as measures to reduce its level. There are considered the issues of reliability and …
