Investigation of the Dynamic Leakage Characteristics of Floating Seal End Faces in Shield Machine Cutters with Consideration of Wear Effects

In slurry shield tunneling projects, leakage from floating seals frequently leads to abnormal failures of disc cutters. To investigate the leakage characteristics at the floating seal end faces of the cutters, a numerical method is proposed for analyzing the dynamic leakage behavior of the floating...
