Abstract

The principal rule for the stuffing-box packings is to ensure the stem valve sealing. The behavior of these systems is affected by the operating conditions, which are the gland axial stress, the temperature, and the fluid pressure, as well as the mechanical and geometrical characteristics of the various components. In this paper, a numerical study using finite element method is presented to analyze the stresses and the displacements in a stuffing box system under the gland stress and the temperature field.
