Abstract
A seal plate disposable between a pair of preforms for chemical vapor infiltration is disclosed. The seal plate may include a plurality of first channels that extend completely through the seal plate and that are located between an inner annulus and outer annulus of the seal plate. The seal plate may further include a plurality of second channels that also extend completely through the seal plate and that are located also between an inner annulus and outer annulus. The first channels may differ from the second channels in at least one respect (e.g., the first channels may be of a different width than the second channels). The first channels may provide an inlet for the chemical vapor infiltration of the preform, while the second channels may provide an outlet for the chemical vapor infiltration of the preform.
