Effect of energy equation in one control-volume bulk-flow model for the prediction of labyrinth seal dynamic coefficients

•Considering the energy equation results in a better estimation of the seal dynamic coefficients.•Real gas properties and related empirical correlations are reported.•The authors’ model is more reliable compared to the state-of-the-art bulk-flow model.•Experimental negative pre-swirl tests are used...
