Magnetic Circuit Design and Finite Element Simulation Analysis of Magnetic Fluid Rotating Dynamic Sealing Device

Abstract

The magnetic fluid rotary dynamic sealing device is based on the magnetic fluid material. The typical sealing structure is to fill the magnetic fluid in the gap between the shaft and the magnetic pole, and keep it in the sealing gap under the action of the external magnetic field to form a liquid "O"-shaped sealing ring to block it. The sealing effect of this kind of device largely depends on the design of the magnetic circuit structure of the device. In this paper, ANSYS finite element simulation is used to analyze the influence of seal stages, tooth shape and the number of permanent magnets on the magnetic fluid rotating dynamic seal. The L9 (34) factor level table is designed by orthogonal test method to analyze the priority of the influence of tooth width, seal clearance and chamfering on the magnetic fluid sealing performance, which provides the reference for the structural design and magnetic circuit design of magnetic fluid rotating dynamic seal.
