An assembly for a turbine engine comprising a plurality of circumferentially arranged segments having first and second confronting end faces. The first and second confronting end faces include a multi-channel spline seal assembly. The multi-channel spline seal assembly includes at least a first and second channel wherein confronting first or second channels can receive at least one spline seal.

An integrated combustor nozzle includes an inner liner segment; an outer liner segment; and a panel extending radially between the inner and outer liner segments. The panel includes a forward end, an aft end, and a side walls extending axially from the forward end to the aft end. The aft end defines a turbine nozzle having a trailing edge circumferentially offset from the forward end. The inner liner segment has a pair of sealing surfaces, each of which defines a first continuous curve in the circumferential direction. The outer liner segment has a pair of sealing surfaces, each of which defines a second continuous curve in the circumferential direction. In some instances, the curves are monotonic in the circumferential direction. A segmented annular combustor including an array of such integrated combustor nozzles is also provided.

A first-stage turbine vane supporting structure reduces chordal leakage between a first-stage turbine vane segment and its supporting ring. The structure includes a first-stage turbine vane segment including an outer platform, an inner platform, and a first-stage turbine vane disposed between the inner and outer platforms; an inner rail protruding from the inner platform in a longitudinal direction of the first-stage turbine vane; a supporting ring for supporting the first-stage turbine vane segment by engaging with the inner rail while facing one surface of the inner rail; a supporting member engaging with the supporting ring to define a U-shaped space bordered by three side surfaces surrounding the inner rail; and a flexible member interposed between the inner rail and one of the three side surfaces of the U-shaped space. A protrusion formed on the inner rail engages with a sealing surface of the supporting ring in an airtight manner.

An assembly is provided for rotational equipment. This assembly includes a plurality of seal shoes, a seal base and a spring system. The seal shoes are arranged about a centerline in an annular array. The seal shoes include a first seal shoe. The seal base circumscribes the seal shoes. The spring system connects the seal shoes to the seal base. The spring system includes a first spring element and a second spring element. The first spring element extends axially along the centerline in a first axial direction from the seal base to the first seal shoe. The second spring element extends axially along the centerline in a second axial direction from the seal base to the first seal shoe. The second axial direction is opposite the first axial direction.

A seal ring for a non-contact seal may comprise an annular body comprising a first side surface, a second side surface, an outer surface, and an inner surface, and a plurality of window openings disposed in the annular body. The plurality of window openings may be configured to provide access to the seal for installation of a melting member to secure the seal shoes in an outboard direction during installation.

Various embodiments include gas turbine seals and methods of forming such seals. In some cases, a turbine includes: a first arcuate component adjacent to a second arcuate component, each arcuate component including a slot including one or more slot segments located in an end face and a seal assembly disposed in the slot. The seal assembly including a plurality of seal segments forming at least one T-junction where a first seal segment intersects a second seal segment and at least one shim seal. The plurality of seal segments define at least one chute gap. The at least one shim seal disposed in a slot proximate the at least one T-junction of the plurality of seal segments. The at least one shim seal positioned on a sidewall of the second seal segment and extending a partial length of the sidewall. The at least one shim seal seals the at least one chute gap to prevent a flow therethrough of a gas turbine hot gas path flow.

A component for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a body including a cold side surface adjacent to a mate face. A plurality of ridges extends from the cold side surface. A seal member abuts the plurality of ridges to define a plurality of cooling passages. The seal member is configured to move between a first position and a second position relative to the plurality of ridges. Each of the plurality of cooling passages includes a first inlet defined at the first position and a second, different inlet defined at the second position. A method of sealing between adjacent components of a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A turbomachine part of an annular assembly includes a structural body and a connecting edge integral with the structural body. Each connecting edge includes at least one groove intended to receive a sealing tab. Each connecting edge is made of composite material including a fibrous reinforcement consisting of randomly-oriented short fibres, the reinforcement being densified by a ceramic matrix.

A flow path component includes a platform that extends between a first side and a second side. A slot is in the first side. The slot divides the platform into a first portion and a second portion at the first side. There is a groove along the first side in the first portion.

Method for manufacturing a CMC, i.e. ceramic matrix composite material, part provided with at least one cutout, as well as to such a CMC part provided with at least one cutout, the method comprising the following steps: providing (E1) a fibrous reinforcement (10), forming (E2′) a cavity in a portion of the fibrous reinforcement (10), injecting (E3) a slip comprising at least a ceramic powder and a solvent, the slip being injected so as to impregnate the fibrous reinforcement (10′) and to fill the cavity of the fibrous reinforcement (10′), drying (E4) the obtained assembly, carrying out a densification (E6) by infiltration of a liquid densification material and solidification of said densification material, machining (E7) at least one cutout in the obtained blank (30) within the volume corresponding to the cavity of the fibrous reinforcement (10).
