Abstract
An outlet seal connects a combustor that combusts a fuel to generate combustion gas and a shroud for a stator. The outlet seal has a gas path surface, a first connection section, and a second connection section. The shape of the gas path surface in a cross section perpendicular to an axis is an arc centered on the axis. The first connection section is formed at a first side in an axial direction and is connected to the combustor. The second connection section is formed at a second side in the axial direction and is connected to the shroud. The gas path surface has an inclined surface that is inclined with respect to the axis in a cross section including the axis, such that the flow-path area of a combustion-gas flow path is reduced toward the second side.
