Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section that has a ceramic matrix composite body that defines a core gaspath side that a row of blades, a forward end, an aft end, and circumferential sides. The forward end abuts at least one vane of a first row of vanes, and the aft end including a seal channel. A compliant seal is disposed in the seal channel and seals against at least one vane of a second row of vanes.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section that has a retainer ring, a first vane that bears against the retainer ring to prevent movement of the first vane in a first axial direction, a second vane axially spaced from the first vane, and a blade axially between the first vane and the second vane. A blade outer air seal is situated radially outwardly of the blade. The blade outer air seal includes a ceramic matrix composite body that defines a core gaspath side that faces the blade, a forward end, an aft end, and circumferential sides. There is a spring seal at the aft end of the blade outer air seal that seals against the second vane. The spring seal provides a preload that biases the blade outer air seal against the first vane and thereby biases the first vane against the retainer ring.

Abstract: An electric machine for converting between electrical and rotary mechanical energy includes a rotor journaled to rotate about an axis of rotation, and a stationary stator mounted adjacent to the rotor. The stator has a ferromagnetic backiron with a surface facing the rotor across a magnetic airgap and having windings applied in a winding pattern formed directly onto the stator backiron and adhered to its surface with a pre-applied tacky adhesive. The windings magnetically exert torque upon the rotor across the magnetic armature airgap in response to electric power applied to the windings. The rotor has permanent magnets that generate magnetic flux across the airgap and through the windings. The windings are comprised of pre-bundled multiple individually insulated conductor strands that are electrically connected in parallel but are electrically insulated from each other along their lengths inside said magnetic armature airgap.
