Zusammenfassung: | A seal assembly for a dual-flow compressor is provided. The seal assembly may include an annular body disposed about a rotary shaft between a first compression assembly and a second compression assembly of the dual-flow compressor. An inner radial surface of the annular body and an outer radial surface of the rotary shaft may at least partially define a radial clearance therebetween. The annular body may have a first seal section and a second seal section at a first axial end portion and a second axial end portion thereof, respectively. The first and second seal sections may at least partially define a cavity therebetween. The seal assembly may also include a reference line communicably coupling the cavity with an inlet of the first compression assembly and configured to at least partially generate a pressure differential between the cavity and an outlet of the first compression assembly. |
