Abstract:
A seal arrangement between radially-opposed rotating and stationary components in a turbomachine includes a first rotating component, a second stationary component, and a brush seal located radially therebetween. The brush seal has an axially-extending portion secured to the second stationary component, and an inwardly-extending portion extending across a gap between the first and second components. An inner ring portion of the second stationary component is located radially inward of, and in engagement with the axially-extending portion and at least part of the inwardly-extending portion of the brush seal, wherein an end of the axially-extending portion of the brush seal remote from the inwardly-extending portion is sandwiched between a pair of side rails fixed between the inner ring portion and an outer ring portion of the second stationary component.
