The Reynolds equation for misaligned radial face seals coning is solved numerically, and the squeeze effects on the separating forces and tilting moments are studied. Also, the variations in the seal characteristics with eccentricity, thin film thickness and radius ratio are presented. The numerical results for the forces and moments are given in nondimensional form.
