Abstract:
A retaining ring for a turbomachine disk and coverplate assembly includes a ring body defining a coverplate interface side and an opposed disk lip interface side. A flow feature is defined by the ring body on the coverplate interface side to allow airflow between the turbomachine disk coverplate and the ring body such that a pocket defined between the coverplate and the turbomachine disk is in fluid communication with a conditioning flow pathway through the retaining ring.
