A mechanical face seal has been tested in Korea Aerospace Research Institute for turbopump applications. In this paper the acceptance test results of the mechanical face seal are described. By means of simulating a practical operating environment, the performance against leakage of mechanical face seal is monitored. In addition the carbon wear is measured to estimate the life of a mechanical face seal. The test results show the acceptable leakage performance and resonable wear tendency as well. Lastly the repeated test had been carried out to guarantee the endurance performance of mechanical face seal based on the turbopump life.
