Zusammenfassung:A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) and metal attachment configuration is provided. The CMC and metal attachment may include a metal plate, a CMC plate, a spacer, a metal bolt and a nut. Metal plate may include metal plate aperture. CMC plate may be adjacent metal plate and may include CMC plate aperture aligned with metal plate aperture. Spacer may be adjacent to CMC, and spacer may include spacer aperture aligned with metal plate and CMC apertures. Metal bolt may have first and second ends, second end may be operable to fit into aligned spacer, CMC plate, and metal apertures, to attach spacer, CMC plate and metal plate. Nut may be adjacent to metal plate and may be operable to receive second end of bolt. Spacer may allow metal plate, having a high coefficient of thermal expansion, to be attached to CMC plate, having a low coefficient of thermal expansion.
