Abstract

Shrouds and methods for forming turbine components are provided. A shroud includes a shroud body which includes a forward surface, a rear surface axially spaced from the forward surface, an inner surface extending between the forward surface and the rear surface, and an outer surface extending between the forward surface and the rear surface and radially spaced from the inner surface. The shroud further includes a forward flange extending from the outer surface of the shroud body, and a rear flange extending from the outer surface of the shroud body, the rear flange axially spaced from the forward flange. The shroud further includes a cooling passage defined in the shroud, the cooling passage extending generally circumferentially through the shroud.
