Fluid Sealing

the long version

This volume presents the edited Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Fluid Sealing held in Brugge, 7-9 April, 1992. <br/> The overall theme of the contributions is the improvement of sealing reliability and effectiveness. <br/> Emission control is a critical function in plant, equipment, machinery and transportation systems. Increasingly it is becoming the focus of legislation to control environmental contamination. Engineering managers should therefore become fully conversant with the latest technology for ensuring seal reliability. The contributions collated in this volume describe developments and insight into the application of the best available seal-technology. <br/> The papers are arranged in the main categories of lip seals, static seals, mechanical seal research, mechanical seal application and performance, mechanical seal qualification, value emissions and clearance seals, materials and therman science, fluid power and packings. <br/> For mechanical, production, civil and safety engineers. <br/>
