Abstract
A relatively stationary segmented turbine engine shroud, nozzle or frame assembly is sealed against the passage of cooling air into the exhaust gas flowpath by a plurality of spline seals which cooperate with an annular stationary brush seal. The spline seals provide sealing between axially extending confronting edges of adjacent segments while the brush seal provides continuous circumferential sealing around the segments and spline seals.
