    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a seal configured to interface with at least a first component and a second component of a gas turbine engine. A method for forming the seal includes obtaining an ingot of a fine grained, or a coarse grained, or a columnar grained or a single crystal material from a precipitation hardened nickel base superalloy containing at least 40% by volume of the precipitate of the form Ni3(Al, X), where X is a metallic or refractory element, and processing the ingot to generate a sheet of the material, where the sheet has a thickness within a range of 0.010 inches and 0.050 inches inclusive.

    Abstract: A seal system includes a ceramic component, a metallic component, a coating system. The ceramic component has a first surface region that defines a first surface roughness. The metallic component is situated adjacent to the first surface region and has a second surface region facing the first surface region. The coating system includes a silicon-containing layer on the surface region of the ceramic component and barrier layer on the silicon-containing layer. The silicon containing layer has a surface in contact with the barrier layer and the barrier layer has a surface in contact with the metallic component. The surface of the barrier layer has a second surface roughness that is less than the first surface roughness. The barrier layer serves to limit interaction between silicon of the silicon-containing layer and elements of the metallic component. The barrier layer includes at least one of mullite, zircon, or hafnon.

    Abstract: An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes, among other things, an end wall including a main body extending between a first end portion and a second end portion to establish a seal face. The end wall includes a first attachment portion dimensioned to fixedly attach the main body to a static structure at a first attachment point. An airfoil extends radially inwardly from the end wall relative to an assembly axis. The airfoil includes an inner cavity extending between a first end portion and a second end portion, the first end portion adjacent the end wall of the airfoil. A spar member includes a spar body extending between a first end portion and a second end portion. The spar body extends at least partially through the inner cavity. The first end portion of the end wall is cantilevered from the first attachment point.
