Flow diverters for installation in mid-turbine frame systems at a conduit outlet of gas turbine engines are described. The flow diverters include a diverter body having a connector portion defining a diverter inlet, a diverter extension at least partially defining a diverter outlet, and a curved portion arranged between the connector portion and the diverter extension, the curved portion configured to change a direction of flow from a first direction to a second direction that is about 90&#xb0; from the first direction as the flow passes from the diverter inlet to the diverter outlet.

An air seal assembly for a gas turbine includes a flow path platform. The air seal assembly further includes a casing disposed radially outside the flow path platform. The air seal assembly further includes an annular finger seal mounted to the casing and disposed between the flow path platform and the casing. The annular finger seal includes a first circumferential portion mounted to the casing, a second circumferential portion extending from the first circumferential portion, and a third circumferential portion extending from the second circumferential portion and contacting an outer surface of the flow path platform. The third circumferential portion includes a plurality of air cooling holes configured to direct a cooling air stream onto the flow path platform.
