Abstract
A seal capable of providing a seal for an air gap between a rotor and a stator. The seal incorporates a container for the textile insulators fixed on the rotor or the stator. The textile insulators are subjected, on one side, to an upstream pressure and, on another side, to downstream pressure, the upstream pressure being greater than the downstream pressure. The textile insulators are supported on the stator or the rotor so as to be at an angle to the side of the seal where the pressure is lower, namely the downstream pressure.
