Abstract:
A turbine shroud for a gas turbine engine is disclosed in this paper. The turbine shroud includes a ceramic-matrix composite blade track. The ceramic-matrix composite blade track includes a plurality of track segments located circumferentially adjacent to one another to form a track ring. Features of the track segments provide tortuous paths for gasses trying to pass through the ceramic-matrix composite blade track that may reduce leakage through the blade track.
