Explanation of the mechanisms of unsteady gas flow through the turbocharger seal system, including thermal and structural interactions

Gas flow in the seal system can be expected during the operation of a turbocharger and is associated with negative effects on the quality of the lubricant or turbocharger efficiency.Gas flow also affects particulate matter production due to lubricant entrainment in the compressor or turbine.The prediction of gas flow rates Hayward HCP 4000 Series P
