Abstract
In this study, three different models; capillary, concentric cylinders, and modified Darcy's models, are used to characterize the sealing behavior of graphite-based compression packing rings. Based on data from several experimental tests, the ability of each model to predict accurate leak rates is evaluated. The comparison between the predicted and the measured leak rates is conducted for different molecular size gasses and a wide range of gland stresses and gas pressures.
