Airfoil seal |
摘要 |
A gas turbine engine component has an airfoil and a squealer tip. The airfoil has a pressure side and a suction side. The squealer tip is located at one end of the airfoil to engage with an adjacent surface and thereby form a seal. The squealer tip terminates in a squealer tip apex with an arched cross-sectional profile in a plane extending from the pressure side to the suction side of the airfoil. A method for producing an airfoil seal for the gas turbine engine component is also provided. |

1. A gas turbine engine component comprising:
an airfoil having a pressure side and a suction side; and a metallic squealer tip located at one end of the airfoil to engage with an adjacent surface and thereby form a seal, the squealer tip terminating in a squealer tip apex that follows a continuously curved circular or elliptical cross-sectional profile in a plane extending from the pressure side to the suction side of the airfoil. |
