  • Publication number: 20170284218
    Abstract: A seal structure includes: a first member and a second member disposed so as to face a combustion gas flow passage; a third member disposed on the outer side of the combustion gas flow passage; a heat-resistant coating formed on at least one of a first end face and a second end face, on the side of the face closer to the combustion gas flow passage; and a contact part disposed in the first end face and the second end face, further on the outer side than the heat-resistant coating. When the first member and the second member move relatively toward each other, the contact part restricts the relative movement by coming in contact in a state where a clearance is left between the heat-resistant coating and the face facing the heat-resistant coating.
