A method of assembling a blade array includes the step of inserting a blade having a platform into a rotor. The blade includes a pocket radially beneath the platform that includes an interference feature. The blade corresponds to one of first and second blades that are scaled versions of one another. The method includes the step of selecting a damper seal, and inserting the damper seal into the pocket. The damper seal corresponds to one of first and second damper seals. The first damper seal cooperates with the interference feature thereby permitting the first damper seal to fully seat within the pocket. The second damper seal is obstructed by the interference feature thereby preventing the second damper seal from fully seating within the pocket.

A seal damper system includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced blades that each include a platform and an airfoil that extends radially outwardly from the platform. A pocket is arranged circumferentially intermediate the blades and radially inwardly of the platform. A seal damper is arranged in the pocket. The seal damper includes a base section that extends along an axial dimension from a first axial end to an opposing second axial end. The base section joins a first arm that extends radially inwardly from the first axial end and a second arm that extends radially inwardly from the second axial end. The first arm includes a free end having a pair of spaced apart shoulders.

A turbine section comprises a rotor, blade and rim seal. The rotor comprises a rim defining an outer diameter surface, and a slot in the outer diameter surface. The blade comprises an airfoil, a platform surrounding the airfoil, a shank extending from the platform, a root extending from the shank for connecting to the slot, and a nub extending from the shank beneath the platform. The rim seal is disposed between the outer diameter surface and the nub. A method for cooling an outer diameter of a rotor disk comprises bleeding cooling air in a gas turbine engine, passing the flow of cooling air through a cover plate that retains a seal plate against the rotor disk, leaking the cooing air between a rotor disk rim and the seal plate, and guiding the cooling air across an outer diameter surface of the rotor disk rim utilizing a rim seal.

A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced apart pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface extending in a radial direction. The trailing edge is arranged on an aft side of the turbine blade. A root supports a platform from which the airfoil extends and a cooling passage extends within the root in the radial direction to the airfoil. A lower wing is arranged beneath the platform on the aft side and extends in an axial direction to provide a U-shaped channel with the platform that extends in a circumferential direction. An impingement hole extends from the U-channel to the cooling passage.

A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section. The turbine section includes a disk that is rotatable about an axis. A plurality of turbine blades are mounted around a periphery of the disk, and a plurality of seals are arranged between the turbine blades and the periphery of the disk. Each of the seals includes, with respect to the axis, a radially outer surface and a radially inner surface. The radially inner surface includes a plurality of protrusions.

An airfoil has a body that includes leading and trailing edges that adjoin pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface. A cooling passage extends in a radial direction from a root to a tip. A trailing edge cooling passage interconnects the cooling passage to the trailing edge. The trailing edge cooling passage includes first and second pedestals of different sizes that are arranged in a repeating pattern with respect to pedestals of the same size and with respect to pedestals of different sizes.
