<p>A sealing assembly (58) for use with a rotary machine is provided. The sealing assembly includes a stator shroud (64) coupled to a casing (32) within the rotary machine, the stator shroud including an inner surface that at least partially defines a cavity (48) within the casing, at least one stator labyrinth tooth (94) extending outwardly from the stator shroud inner surface towards a rotor assembly positioned within the casing, and at least one protective member (96) coupled to the stator shroud, the protective member upstream from the at least one stator labyrinth tooth to facilitate reducing a flow of combustion gas across the at least one stator labyrinth tooth.</p> |
