The invention relates to a turbomachine for a flight propulsion drive with a compressor, a combustion chamber, a turbine through which a gas flow flows in the flow direction of turbomachine, and a heat exchanger downstream of the turbine, wherein the heat exchanger is equipped to generate steam from water using energy from the gas flow, which can be supplied with fuel to the gas flow for combustion in the combustion chamber.

Turbomachine for an aircraft propulsion drive

A shaft seal system which is disposed axially between a first chamber and a second chamber is disclosed. The shaft seal system includes a shaft, a casing that surrounds the shaft, and a seal which is disposed axially closer to the second chamber where the first chamber has a fluid and the second chamber is to be protected from the fluid. In this arrangement, the seal includes a pressure booster.
