Partition damper seal configurations for segmented internal cooling hardware apparatus are disclosed. An example airfoil includes an outer wall having a first rib spaced apart from a second rib on a surface of the outer wall, and an inner wall surrounded by the outer wall, the inner wall having a third rib protruding from the inner wall towards the surface of the outer wall, an end of the third rib detachably coupled to a portion of the surface of the outer wall, the portion of the surface positioned between the first rib and the second rib, the third rib and at least one of the first rib or the second rib to at least partially seal a flow passage between the inner and outer walls.

Partition damper seal configurations for segmented internal cooling hardware

Partition damper seal configurations for segmented internal cooling hardware apparatus are disclosed. An example apparatus includes an inner wall and an outer wall, the outer wall spaced apart from the inner wall in a radial direction, a space between the inner and outer walls defining a flow passage, and a body positioned between the inner and outer walls, the body traversing the inner and outer walls in an axial direction and attached to an inner surface of the outer wall and an outer surface of the inner wall, the body to detach from the inner and outer surfaces and to at least partially seal the flow passage in response to the outer wall moving relative to the inner wall.

A gas turbine engine is provided having a static structure including a flowpath wall. A fluid circuit is extended through the flowpath wall and includes a first inlet opening in fluid communication with a first cavity to receive a first flow of fluid through the fluid circuit. The static structure includes an ejector positioned at the fluid circuit, in which the ejector includes a second inlet opening in fluid communication with a second cavity to receive a second flow of fluid through the ejector and into the fluid circuit.
