The system may also include a plurality of seal members, each disposed between respective platforms of adjacent rotor blades and configured to substantially prevent the flue gas flowing though the expander from mixing with the coolant.

A turbomachine stator element extends around a longitudinal axis and includes a first stator vane and a second stator vane circumferentially adjacent to the first stator vane. Each of the first and second stator vanes include a platform and a blade extending radially from the platform. The stator element also comprising at least one inter-platform seal, arranged between the platform of the first stator vane and the platform of the second stator vane. The inter-platform seal has a flat support provided with an upper surface on which there extends a fin.

An assembly is provided for rotational equipment. This assembly includes a seal land and a seal element. The seal land extends circumferentially around and is configured to rotate about an axial centerline. The seal element is abutted against and is sealingly engaged with the seal land. The seal element extends circumferentially around the axial centerline. The seal element includes porous material, an exterior surface and a seal element passage. The seal element is configured to flow lubricant from the seal element passage, through the porous material, to the exterior surface.

A platform seal assembly for a gas turbine engine with a turbine disk and a plurality of turbine blades is disclosed. The platform seal assembly includes a platform seal and a validation tab. The platform seal includes a first end, a second end, opposite and distal to the first end, and a body extending between the first end and the second end. The validation tab includes an attachment portion affixed to the platform seal and an observable indicator portion extending from the attachment portion.

A turbomachine including a rotor having an axis and a plurality of disks positioned adjacent to each other in the axial direction, each disk including opposing axially facing surfaces and a circumferentially extending radially facing surface located between the axially facing surfaces. At least one row of blades is positioned on each of the disks, and the blades include an airfoil extending radially outward from the disk A non-segmented circumferentially continuous ring structure includes an outer rim defining a thermal barrier extending axially in overlapping relation over a portion of the radially facing surface of at least one disk, and extending to a location adjacent to a blade on the disk A compliant element is located between a radially inner circumferential portion of the ring structure and a flange structure that extends axially from an axially facing surface of the disk.

A blade for a gas turbine engine includes a fixed length member and a floating blade seal that is movable relative to the floating blade seal to change the length of the blade and vary the gap between the blade and an engine housing component.

A turbine in a gas turbine engine that includes a stator blade and a rotor blade having a seal formed in a trench cavity. The trench cavity may include an axial gap defined between opposing inboard faces of the stator blade and rotor blade. The seal may include: a stator overhang extending from the stator blade toward the rotor blade so to include an outboard edge and an inboard edge and, defined therebetween, an overhang face; a rotor outboard face extending radially inboard from a platform edge, the rotor outboard face opposing at least a portion of the overhang face across the axial gap of the trench cavity; and a first axial projection extending from the rotor outboard face toward the stator blade. The stator overhang and the first axial projection of the rotor blade may be configured so to axially overlap.
