Abstract: A blade for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil that includes an internal passage. A shroud is arranged at an end of the airfoil and has a shroud perimeter. Axially spaced knife edges extend radially from the shroud. An area is provided between the knife edges. A pocket is recessed into the area and is circumscribed by a perimeter edge that is arranged interiorly of the shroud perimeter. An outlet fluidly connects the internal passage to the pocket.

Abstract: A brush seal plate may comprise a flat ring with bristles protruding from an inner diameter of the flat ring. The brush seal plate may have a racetrack slot to allow the flat ring to move in a radial direction relative to a retention pin. The bristles may protrude from the inner diameter of the flat ring at an angle. A slot may be formed through the flat ring, and the slot may be angled. The flat ring may be circumferentially discontinuous. The flat ring may further comprise a retention opening configured to fix the flat ring in place relative to a retention pin.

Abstract: A seal support structure is provided for a circumferential seal. In one embodiment, the seal support structure includes an engine support structure, a seal support, and a shoulder joining the engine support and seal support. The shoulder offsets the engine support from the seal support, and the shoulder and the seal support structure are configured to dampen vibration for the circumferential seal. The seal support structure may employ one or more dampening elements or materials to interoperate with a seal support structure to dampen vibration to a seal system.
