EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISATION OF THE STIFFNESS AND LEAKAGE OF A PROTOTYPE LEAF SEAL FOR TURBINE APPLICATIONS

The leaf seal, a seal comprising multiple flexible elements, offers similar leakage to a brush seal, but may have other benefits that make it a more attractive option in some applications. This paper details an experimental investigation of the leakage and stiffness of a pair of prototype leaf seals...
