Abstract
This invention relates to an abradable coating system for use in axial turbine engines. When coated onto a turbine ring seal segment the coating system may allow formation of an individualized seal between turbine blade disks and the surrounding ring seal without causing excessive wear to the blade tips. The abradable coating system includes columns of an abradable material. Thus, interference between the blades and the abradable coating system causes the individual columns to break off at the base. This abrasion mechanism may reduce blade wear and spalling of the coating system when compared to conventional coatings.
