Keywords: Fluid film thickness, fluid pressure, asperity contact pressure, static contact pressure, flow rate, pressure balance, sealed pressure, piston velocity, gamma values.
Funding source: This work was conducted under the ATI/Innovate UK (Grant No. 263261) Project: Future Landing Gear 2, with Airbus UK as Industrial Lead. The authors also acknowledge funding from EPSRC (Grant No. 2625870).

Methodological information
The data was obtained through computational simulations of a capped T-ring seal operating under various conditions. The approach involved numerical methods coupled with Finite Element Analysis in a fluid-solid interaction framework. A total of 55 simulations were conducted, producing key outputs such as static contact pressure, asperity contact pressure, fluid film pressure, fluid film thickness, dimensionless flow rate (broken down into its pressure, velocity, and sliding components), and the pressure balance.
