ABSTRACT:
A turbine vane assembly of a gas turbine engine includes inner and outer shroud walls and a plurality of airfoil-shaped vanes extending between and connected at their opposite ends with the inner and outer shroud walls. The mounting construction of the vane ends to the respective shroud walls includes a plurality of recessed ledges defined in the shroud walls along respective ones of the ends of the vanes. Each ledge forms a gap between the respective wall and vane end extending from a trailing edge pressure side of the vane along the pressure side to a location approximately midway between the trailing and leading edges of the pressure side of the vane. The remainder of the vane end is rigidly connected to the respective shroud wall.
