Patent Primary Examiner
A gas turbine engine with a compressor supplying compressed air. A combustor receives the compressed air and fuel and generates a flow of combusted gas. A turbine receives a core flow of the combusted gas to rotate a turbine rotor. A turbine inlet nozzle directs the combusted gas to the turbine rotor. Vanes are disposed in the turbine inlet nozzle and rotate to vary a flow area through which the core flow passes. The vanes adjust a pressure ratio of the gas turbine engine to compensate for changing operational requirements of the gas turbine engine by rotating to positions matching the changing operational requirements.
