Abstract
A system includes a circumferential lap joint between a downstream end of an outer wall of a turbine outlet and an upstream end of an outer barrel of a diffuser section, where the circumferential lap joint facilitates axial movement of the outer barrel relative to the outer wall, an upstream lip of the outer barrel is disposed radially within a downstream lip of the outer wall, and both the turbine outlet and the diffuser section are configured to receive an exhaust gas.
