A rotary machine includes a machine rotor, a machine stator, a labyrinth seal disposed between the machine rotor and the machine stator, a dry gas seal disposed between the machine rotor and the machine stator, the dry gas seal being disposed downstream of the labyrinth seal, the labyrinth seal including a labyrinth seal rotor, and, a labyrinth seal stator, the labyrinth seal stator having a cavity containing a heat transfer medium configured to transfer heat between the labyrinth seal stator and a zone adjacent the labyrinth seal stator to cool or heat a pressurized process fluid before the process fluid bears against the dry gas seal.

Seal for a rotary machine

Protection device for a stator of a turbine comprising a series of annular sectors () which can be coupled by connection means, each sector () comprising a first side surface () which has at least one cavity () equipped with a bottom (), each bottom () of the at least one cavity () is convex and each sector () comprises at least one stiffening rib () positioned inside the at least one cavity (14) and having a variable section in a longitudinal direction to modulate the rigidity of each sector ().

Protection device for a turbine stator

A cooling system for gas turbine stator nozzles, wherein each of the vanes which belong to the nozzles of the gas turbine has a concave surface and an opposite convex surface, which cooperate in order to define the outer shape of the vane, and wherein the surface of the vane has a plurality of cooling holes, at appropriate points of the surface itself of the vane. In this system, the cooling hole relative to the outlet edge of the vane is provided with an intake section and an outlet section, which are shaped such that the cooling hole has a cross-section which is variable in a direction which is radial relative to the vane.
