Abstract

Technologies for managing pressure across one or more chamber seals in machines handling process fluids. The machine includes a pressure chamber and another pressure chamber, both of which are pressurized by the process fluid. The pressure differential between these chambers is maintained by one or more chamber seals. Dynamic coupled elements may be configured within the pressure chamber and/or the other pressure chamber. The other pressure chamber is fluidly connected to a lower-pressure point via a pressure balancing line, facilitating controlled fluid flow through the seals. The induced pressure differential directs a cascading flow of process fluid from the pressure chamber to the other pressure chamber, and subsequently to the lower-pressure point. This arrangement improves pressure regulation, fluid flow management, and seal efficiency, enhancing the overall performance of various machines and industrial applications.
