In order to start a turbine engine, high-pressure fluid is directed onto a turbine to cause rotation of the turbine and thereby start the turbine engine. In a disclosed embodiment, the high-pressure fluid is provided through a fluid outlet in a vane positioned adjacent the turbine. The high-pressure fluid is provided by an air source, which may be another turbine engine, especially where the turbine engine to be started is a tip turbine engine that is not the primary propulsion source. |
