Abstract: An airfoil includes an airfoil section that defines an aerodynamic profile that has leading and trailing ends. The airfoil section spans in a longitudinal direction between first and second end sections. The airfoil section includes an internal cavity that extends between the first and second end sections and a lateral side. The internal cavity includes a baffle seat therein. A baffle is laterally insertable into the internal cavity through the lateral side into a seated position in the baffle seat.

Abstract: An apparatus for sealing a gap between a stator vane platform including a seal slot, and a rotatable stator vane including a shaft connected to a vane end. The apparatus includes a substantially flat, semi-annular seal body, a first tab and a second tab. The seal body extends circumferentially between a first body end and a second body end, and radially between a radial inner body side and a radial outer body side. The inner body side wraps partially around the shaft, and the outer body side mates with the seal slot. The first tab extends axially from the first body end, and the second tab extends axially from the second body end. The first tab and the second tab engage the vane end and cause the seal body to move within the seal slot during rotation of the stator vane.
