Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A sealing assembly for use with a rotating machine is described herein. The rotating machine includes a stator casing that includes a radially inner surface that defines a cavity therein, and a rotor positioned within the cavity and spaced inwardly from the stator inner surface. The sealing assembly includes a support ring coupled to the stator casing, and a plurality of plate members coupled to the support ring and oriented circumferentially about the rotor. A resistance member extends inwardly from the support ring towards the rotor outer surface. The resistance member is coupled to the support ring and extends through each plate member of the plurality of plate members. At least one rotor land is defined circumferentially about the rotor outer surface. Each plate member is oriented adjacent the at least one rotor land.
