ABSTRACT:
An outer air seal circumscribing the tips of the rotor blades of a rotary machine is disclosed. Techniques for limiting the radial clearance between the tips of the blades and the outer air seal at steady state conditions are developed. Structure independent of the machine case for isolating the thermal response of the outer air seal from the thermal response of the machine case is discussed and illustrated.
