Abstract:
An airfoil component for a gas turbine engine includes a platform. The airfoil component includes a flow path surface from which an airfoil extends. A laterally extending aft surface is adjacent to the flow path surface. A contoured surface adjoins the flow path surface and the aft surface. An airfoil component for a gas turbine engine includes a platform. The airfoil component includes a flow path surface from which an airfoil extends. A laterally extending aft surface is adjacent to the flow path surface. A contoured surface adjoins the flow path surface and the aft surface. The aft surface extends from a first aft edge to a second aft edge at a circumferentially extending edge. The contoured surface is arranged inboard from at least one of the first and second edges.
