Zusammenfassung:An airfoil module may have an outer diameter ring assembly, a vane assembly having a stator vane and an inner diameter ring assembly. The outer diameter ring assembly and the inner diameter ring assembly may be arranged concentrically with the stator vane of the vane assembly extending between them. The inner diameter ring assembly may have a first inner diameter ring section sealing end and a second inner diameter ring section sealing end. A feather seal may be disposed along the first inner diameter ring section sealing end. A stator ring assembly may comprise multiple airfoil modules arranged in an annulus. The outer diameter ring assemblies may be joined together by brazing or welding, or may share a unified outer diameter ring assembly. The inner diameter ring assemblies may abut feather seals so that the airfoil modules may expand and contract independently along the inner diameter ring assemblies.
