Abstract

An experimental procedure ispresented for measuring contact pressure between a pneumatic seal and its counterface. Measurements were performed using pressure-sensitive films,for which a suited calibration procedure was developed,also taking into account humidity influence.Having validated the experimental procedure on a lip seal rectilinear specimen, tests were carried out on commercial piston seals. Resultswerecomparedwiththosecomingfromnumericalsimulationsperformedusingafinite- elementsanalysis.
