    Abstract: A turbine engine for an aircraft includes a fan that rotates to generate a volume of air, a core turbine engine, a nacelle, and a steam system. The core turbine engine includes a combustor that generates combustion gases, and a turbine including a shaft. The combustor and the turbine define a core air flowpath. The fan is drivingly coupled to the shaft. The nacelle circumferentially surrounds the fan and defines a bypass airflow passage between the nacelle and the core turbine engine. The volume of air flows into the bypass airflow passage as bypass air and flows into the core air flowpath as core air. The steam system extracts water from the combustion gases, vaporizes the water to generate steam, and injects the steam into the core air flowpath to add mass flow to the core air. A bypass ratio of the turbine engine is greater than 18:1.

    Abstract: A compressor section of a gas turbine generally includes a stage of inlet guide vanes positioned adjacent to an inlet of the compressor section and a stage of rotor blades disposed downstream from the inlet guide vanes. A stage of stator vanes is positioned downstream from the stage of rotor blades. The stage of stator blades includes a row of leading guide vanes having a trailing edge. A row of trailing guide vanes coupled to an actuator is disposed between two corresponding adjacent leading guide vanes. Each of the trailing guide vanes includes a trailing edge. The leading edge of each trailing guide vane is disposed upstream of the trailing edge of a corresponding leading guide vane when the trailing guide vane is in an open position and downstream from the trailing edge of the corresponding leading guide vane when the trailing guide vane is in a closed position.
