ABSTRACT:
A device for sealing between and damping of adjacent rotor blade platforms is provided which includes a forward seal member, a compliant center seal member, an aft seal member, a first damper, and a second damper. The first damper is disposed between the forward and compliant center seal members, and the second damper is disposed between the compliant center and aft seal members. The compliant center seal member is disposed between the first and second dampers. The compliant center seal member accommodates misalignment between adjacent rotor blade platforms by deflecting in response to centrifugal forces acting on the dampers.
