A porous hydrodynamic and hydrostatic mechanical seal was proposed by combining the porous material and L grooves(PL-MS). A dynamic mathematical model of the seal was developed based on the perturbation method, by considering the mass transfer between the fluids in porous matrix and the lubrication films between seal rings, as well as the film cavitation. The perturbed equations were solved with the finite element method and the dynamic coefficients of the porous hydrodynamic and hydrostatic mechanical seal were numerically analyzed. The results show that the PL-MS generates greater film stiffness coefficients Kzz,Kαα,Kββ than those of the ordinary porous mechanical seals and partial distributed porous mechanical seals due to the synergism of the hydrostatic effect of porous matrix and hydrodynamic effect of L grooves. It is a good way to increase the film stiffness coefficients Kzz,Kαα,Kββ by increasing the porous permeability and optimizing the L groove geometrical parameters at the sacrifice of the stiffness coefficients Kαβ,Kβα and damp coefficients dzz,dαα,dββ .
