Abstract: A seal assembly for a rotary machine, such as a turbine engine, may include one or more seal segments that respectively include a seal housing defining a seal chamber and one or more fluid supply apertures that pass through the seal housing, and a seal body defining a seal face and one or more fluid conduits that pass through the seal body to the seal face. The seal chamber may receive at least a portion of the seal body, and the seal body may move within the seal chamber along a radial axis of a rotor of the rotary engine. The fluid supply apertures may fluidly communicate with the fluid conduits, and the fluid conduits may fluidly communicate with a fluid-bearing gap defined between the seal face and a rotor face of the rotor.

Abstract: A fluid transport device including a first line connector, second line connector and inner line component that fluidly connects the first line connector to the second line connector via respective first and second coupling ends. In a mounted state, an outer line component of the device is attached to the first line connector and to the second line connector, so the outer line component covers the first and second coupling ends. In a demounted state, the outer line component is detached from the first and second line connector, wherein the outer line component is movable relative to the inner line component to uncover the first coupling end or the second coupling end. A method for assembling and disassembling a fluid transport device is also disclosed.

Abstract: A coupling for a hydrogen pipe for coupling multi-wall pipe sections which is equipped with an inner seal and an outer seal and a pressing device that presses the pipe sections together. The hydrogen pipe coupling arrangement comprises at least one spring element configured to apply a pre-pressing force onto the inner seal in addition to a pressing force of the pressing device.
