Seal assembly retention feature and assembly method

摘要

A seal assembly includes a body (46) having two circumferential sides, a leading end, and a trailing end. At least one of the circumferential sides includes a first channel sidewall (60), a second channel sidewall (62), and a channel bottom wall that together define a seal channel for receiving a seal (79). The seal channel includes a slot that cooperates with a tab (78) on the seal to facilitate securing the seal within the seal channel.
