Estimating the term…
A turbomachine element includes a stator, a rotor, and a first sealing means for sealing between the rotor and the stator. The element is arranged to be active when the rotor is in the operating position of same around the axis of rotation thereof. The element includes an auxiliary pressure sealing means, sealing between the rotor and the stator and is arranged so that the two sealing means are active when the rotor is placed along the axis of rotation thereof during an assembly operation in a test position. In the test position, the rotor and the stator form an enclosure between said two sealing means.
A turbine engine element comprising a stator, a rotor, and a first sealing means between the rotor and the stator which is arranged so as to be active when the rotor is in an operating position around an axis of rotation of said rotor, wherein the turbine engine element comprises an auxiliary pressurized sealing means, between the rotor and the stator, wherein the element is arranged so that said first sealing means and said auxiliary pressurized sealing means are active when the rotor is placed along the axis of rotation of said rotor during a process of mounting in a test position, the rotor and the stator forming, in said test position, an enclosure between said first sealing means and said auxiliary pressurized sealing means, and wherein the auxiliary pressurized sealing means is arranged so as to be or become inactive when the rotor is placed in an operating position.
