A damper (161) for a stator assembly comprising a stator segment(150) and a seal (157) mounted to the stator segment locates between the stator segment (150) and the seal (157). The damper comprises: a medial section (167); and opposed arms (163,166) extending from the medial section (167). The medial section (167) engages one of the stator segment(150) and the seal (157) and the opposed arms (163,165) engage the other of the stator segment(150) and the seal (157). A method of making the damper (157), comprises the steps of providing a sheet of material having a medial section (167) and opposed arms(163,165) extending from the medial section (167); forming a bend (171) at the medial section(167) so that the medial section (167) can engage one of the stator segment (150) and the seal (157), and forming a bend (169,173)at each of the arms (163,165) so that the arms (163,165) can engage the other of the stator segment (150) and the seal (157). |
