Abstract
A gas turbine engine component array includes first and second components each having a platform. The platforms are arranged adjacent to one another and provide a gap. A seal is arranged circumferentially between the first and second components and in engagement with the platforms to obstruct the gap. A cooling hole is provided in the seal and is in fluid communication with the gap. The cooling hole has an increasing taper toward the gap.
