Turbine engine guide vane and arrays thereof

摘要

An exit guide vane array for a turbine engine includes a set of guide vanes 28 having a solidity and defining fluid flow passages 74 with a chordwisely converging forward portion 80 . The high solidity and convergent passage portion 80 resist fluid separation. The vanes may also cooperate with each other to restrict an observer's line of sight to planes upstream of the vane array.
