Effective sealing in turbomachinery reduces the leakage flow bypassing the turbine blades and also reduces the losses where the leakage flow mixes with the primary flow. In general the clearance should be as small as possible but is limited by therma... Read More about A Dynamic Clearance Seal for Steam Turbine Application..
