Abstract:
A seal system having a rotating seal section and a static seal section operable for working together to restrict fluid flow there between. An arm connected to the static seal is tuned to move the static seal asymmetrically to correspond with asymmetric movement of the rotating seal during operation to maintain a desired relative position between the static and rotating seals.
