The article presents a numerical and analytical modeling of the stress-strain state of a metal ring seal of a tubing hanger under installation loads, as well as under the influence of well pressure. An analytical method for calculating strength and tightness within the elastic formulation is proposed. The calculation by the finite element method was carried out in order to take into account plastic deformations, which make it possible to study the influence of the geometry of the contact zone of the sealing ring on the width of the contact pad and the magnitude of the contact pressure. Comparison of the calculation results by the analytical method and the finite element method is carried out. It is shown that the analytical method, as less labor-intensive, can be used at the initial stages of designing this type of equipment. |
