Abstract: An apparatus for turbine engine including a turbine section with at least one turbine stage having a stationary vane assembly and a rotating blade assembly with combustion gases flowing through the turbine stage in a fore to aft direction. An interface is formed between a portion of the outer casing and a portion of the stationary vane assembly defining a leak flow path (LFP) where a seal is placed to retard combustion gases in the leak path.

Abstract: A turbomachine, a computing system for a turbomachine, and a method for overspeed protection are provided. The turbomachine includes a first rotor assembly interdigitated with a second rotor assembly together operably coupled to a gear assembly. A plurality of sensors is configured to receive rotor state data indicative of one or more of a speed, geometric dimension, or capacitance, or change thereof, or rate of change thereof, relative to the first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly. A controller executes operations including receiving rotor state data from the plurality of sensors; comparing rotor state data to one or more rotor state limits; and contacting one or more of the first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly to a contact surface adjacent to the respective first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly if the rotor state data exceeds the rotor state limit.
