The seal once i have found the right one, will go onto the ends of the working tube. ( the thing is, the tube rotates in the furnace already. Since its rotating, and its open ended, it needs to be sealed, because gas is going to be fed in. No you can seal it with almost anything that can stand...
HELP NEEDED Sealing chemical Reaction in furnace(Beng mech Eng. project)
Hello everyone,
I had posted a similar thread earlier, got a few responses, but nothing enough to drive me out of my problem, even my project supervisor at Uni of Notts is confused...
The blue dots , forget about them
Just consider a normal rotary seal. Now in this type os seal, only the outer part rotates, and the inner part stays stationary right?
Now, the stationary part of this seal, needs to have 2 holes ( which are the 2 blue dots) that are required for feeding...

In the picture, as you can see, the working tube, is a glass cylindrical tube, mounted onto main body of the furnace using a motor that rotates the tube at certain RPM.
This is an open ended tube, and the blue...
