Entropy generation analysis – the subject of the study described in this two-part feature – is a potential analytical technique that is being developed to provide a useful way of enhancing the functionality of labyrinth seals and perfecting their structure. Compared with conventional techniques, the approach aims to provide a more fundamental analysis of the energy dissipation phenomenon in labyrinth seals and a quantitative description of the amount of energy lost in various flow regions.

Earlier this year Trelleborg Sealing Solutions launched a range of sealing materials that are targeted at applications throughout the entire hydrogen value chain. Designated H2Pro, they have been developed to meet the challenges of hydrogen production, transportation and storage, and end use. Here we provide further details of two specific materials in the range, discuss their properties and look at how they can be used.
