A system includes a brush seal segment. The brush seal segment includes a movable support including a head, an extension, and a seal surface, wherein the head is configured to mount in a chamber. The brush seal segment also includes a brush coupled to the movable support along the seal surface, wherein the seal surface consists essentially of the brush. The brush seal segment also includes a biasing element coupled to the movable support, wherein the biasing element is configured to bias the movable support from a first position to a second position to increase a brush clearance in a space between the brush and a rotor, and the movable support is configured to move from the second position to the first position to decrease the brush clearance in response to a fluid flow from the space to the chamber.

A rotating turbomachine component includes a base portion and an airfoil portion extending from the base portion. The airfoil portion includes a first end connected to the base portion and a tip end portion that is cantilevered from the base portion. A tip leakage flow guide is provided at the tip end portion of the airfoil portion. The tip leakage flow guide includes one or more turning vane members configured and disposed to guide a leakage flow from the tip end portion at a flow angle that substantially coincides with a flow angle of gases flowing downstream from the rotating turbomachine component.

A pattern-abradable seal assembly is provided for a stationary steam turbine component. The seal assembly, in use, is oriented in opposition to at least one seal tooth on a rotatable turbine component so as to inhibit leakage flow across the seal assembly in one direction, the seal assembly may include an annular seal carrier having at least one axially-oriented surface; a pattern-abradable/abrasive seal coating or insert at least partially covering the at least one axially-oriented surface, the pattern-abradable/abrasive seal coating having a pattern formed thereon adapted to face and be at least partially penetrated by the at least one seal tooth. A plurality of anti-swirl elements project radially beyond the pattern and are arranged to provide at least an axial component of flow across the abradable seal assembly. The coating or insert may also be used on other stationary turbine component surfaces to direct flow in a predetermined direction.

A rotor of a turbomachine includes a rotor drum located at a central axis and a plurality of buckets secured to the rotor drum. A first reaction stage includes axial entry dovetailed buckets. An axial passage for cooling flow is provided along a mating surface between the bucket dovetail and the dovetail slot in the rotor drum. Cool steam at taken between a first stage bucket and a second stage nozzle and passed through the axial passage to a low pressure sink at an upstream end of the rotor.
