A turbine blade gap control system configured to move a vane carrier and attached ring segments of a turbine engine axially relative to a turbine blade assembly to reduce the gaps between the tips of the turbine blades and the ring segments to increase the efficiency of the turbine engine once operating in a steady state condition. The turbine blade assembly may be formed from a plurality rows of turbine blades extending radially from a rotor, wherein each row may be formed from a plurality of turbine blades and wherein the turbine blades may have tips positioned at an acute angle relative to a rotational axis of the turbine blade assembly. A vane carrier may be positioned concentric with the rotor and positioned radially outward from the turbine blades, and a plurality of ring segments may be attached to the vane carrier.
