  • Publication number: 20240102397
    Abstract: A turbine stator assembly including a guide vane assembly and a sealing ring bearing an abradable element of a dynamic sealing ring. The assembly includes pins secured to the sealing ring and cooperating with respective oblong openings formed in the guide vane assembly so as to allow a radial movement of the ring with respect to the guide vane assembly in order to compensate for differential thermal expansions. A seal is arranged so as to compensate for circumferential spaces between ring sectors forming the guide vane assembly.
