ABSTRACT:
A steam turbine includes a stator supporting a plurality of turbine nozzles. The stator has shaped grooves for receiving a complementary-shaped nozzle hook formed on an end of each of the turbine nozzles. A rope seal is disposed in each interface between the nozzle hooks and the shaped grooves, respectively. The rope seal serves to seal a leakage path that may exist over the nozzle hooks between the nozzles and respective stator grooves.
