ABSTRACT:
A seal system comprises a rotor and a stator. First and second cavities are defined between the rotor and the stator. A plurality of seals for inhibiting a flow of gas through the cavities are provided. Relative motion between the rotor and the stator can cause a flow of gas through the cavities via the seals. The. seals are arranged such that an increase in pressure in one of the first and second cavities is offset by a decrease in pressure in the other of the first and second cavities.
