ABSTRACT:
A support and seal assembly for attaching porous metal transition duct liner segments to a transition duct of a gas turbine engine. The assembly includes an elongated retainer attached to the duct and separated therefrom to define a retention space therebetween. Panel supports are rigidly attached to adjacent ones of the liner segments and extend perpendicular to adjacent side edges of the liner segments. Distal ends of the panel supports project into the retention space from opposite sides of the retainer and are captured in the retention space to attach the liner segments to the duct. A pair of resilient sealing strips are mounted on the retainer and include sealing nodes which are self-biased against respective ones of the liner segments along the side edges thereof to seal the gap between the adjacent liner segments.
