Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is extremely important in critical seal design. JST conducted PR2 tests as per API6A, as well as FEA to its FS seal, S seal, valve stem packing seal, valve face seal. So why FEA is important and necessary? FEA capabilities make possible: 1. Seal failure prediction from cracks, leaks, or deformation, allowing a better-designed product or reverse-engineering of existing...
