ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine engine which includes an essentially axial-flow compressor drive turbine having at least one turbine stator and at least one turbine rotor and a reverse-flow annular combustion chamber arranged coaxially with a longitudinal centerline of the gas turbine engine. The turbine stator and turbine rotor are arranged in the gas turbine engine and sized for heat retentivity such that thermal expansion rates of the turbine stator and turbine rotor are substantially equal.
