Omniseal Solutions BEYOND the boundaries of possible AVIATION CASE STUDY JET ENGINE LUBRICATION SYSTEMS

OMNISEAL® SPRING-ENERGIZED SEALS Jet Engine Lubrication Systems Arnaud Verger AVIATION HIGH TEMPERATURE HARSH MEDIA HIGH ACCOMMODATION Environment As manufacturers continue to improve the efficiency of jet engines, this results in the increase of temperatures throughout these systems. One example is High Temperature Stability (HTS) lubrication oils that are conveyed through a complex circuit and subjected to large temperature variations as well as strong vibration. These oils have been developed to sustain the harshest conditions in order to cool down engine parts and lubricate bearings. Challenge...

Omniseal® spring-energized seals with a metal spring interior and polymer jacket maintain a high temperature stability while being inert to the most aggressive oils. The sealing solution shows better durability at temperature higher than 230°C (446°C) compared to high grade elastomer O-Rings. Simulation services and in-house testing, combined with finite element analysis relating to the specifics of a customer problem, allow the technical team to create a precision solution. In this lubrication system case, it provides a dilatation proof, tight, durable solution adapted to the former groove design...
