ABSTRACT:
A mechanical seal assembly for use in a pump seal chamber, through which a pump shaft rotates and in which a process fluid is contained by a stationary seal and a rotating seal, converts the velocity head of the circulating process fluid in the seal chamber back to a positive static pressure at the stationary seal and rotating seal faces and ensures a steady film of the process fluid at the seal faces. The mechanical seal assembly converts the velocity head to a positive static pressure through one or more velocity recovery tubes that project outwardly from the pump housing into the sealed chamber, or that project outwardly from the rotating seal into the seal chamber, and communicate with respective passages through the seals and channel the process fluid to the seal faces.
