    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seal assembly using brush seal for minimizing the steam leak in a steam path between a rotary shaft of a turbine and a casing surrounding in the circumferential direction in the turbine region of a steam turbine. SOLUTION: A steam turbine 10 having a shaft 12 and a first (for example, high pressure) turbine section 16 includes a first bearing 20 isolated in the longitudinal direction from the first turbine section, and in the longitudinal direction, further a first brush seal assembly 22 is provided which is positioned between the first turbine section and the first bearing and has bristles arranged near the shaft in the radial direction. The steam turbine does not include any backup seal for the bristles of the first brush seal assembly. A second brush seal assembly 38 is positioned between the first turbine section 16 and a second (for example, middle pressure) turbine section 34, and between these no interposed bearing exists.

    Abstract: A stage of an axial flow turbine includes a plurality of spaced apart buckets and a plurality of spaced apart nozzle partitions, each plurality respectively circumferentially aligned about and axially spaced from each other along a rotor of the turbine. The nozzle partitions are circumferentially spaced such that a minimum throat extends a predetermined radial distance from the root, thereby forming a converging-diverging flow passageway between nozzle partitions. The trailing edge of the nozzle partitions are disposed to include axial and tangential lean with respect to the rotor. Buckets include a plurality of covers respectively connecting the tips and having a single outward radially extending sealing rib on the radially outer surface of each cover, wherein each rib is tangentially aligned with respective adjacent ribs. Buckets are overtwisted to compensate for untwist at operational speed to achieve optimum efficiency. Buckets are circumferentially spaced to provide a converging-diverging channel therebetween and include lashing for providing mechanical coupling at operational speed.
