1. A sealing assembly for use in a gas turbine engine having a disk arranged relative to an axis of rotation of the gas turbine engine, the assembly comprising:
a circumferential groove defined in the disk, the groove including:
a first sidewall;a base portion adjoining the first sidewall; anda second sidewall adjoining the base portion opposite the first sidewall, wherein the second sidewall adjoins the base portion at a location where a concave curvature of the base portion terminates, wherein the second sidewall includes a smooth convex curve, and wherein the entire second sidewall is angled away from the base portion such that the second sidewall is angled in a range greater than 0° and less than 90° with respect to the axis; and an annular wire seal positioned at least partially within the groove. |
