    Abstract: Shrouds and shroud segments for gas turbine engines are provided. In one embodiment, a shroud segment for a gas turbine engine having a rotor blade stage and a nozzle stage is provided. The shroud segment comprises a forward end defining an outer wall of the rotor blade stage and an aft end defining an outer wall of the nozzle stage. The aft end defines at least a portion of an opening therethrough for receipt of a nozzle, and the forward end and the aft end form a single, continuous component. In another embodiment, a gas turbine engine is provided, having a shroud with a forward end positioned near a leading edge of a plurality of rotor blades of a rotor blade stage and an aft end positioned near a trailing edge of a plurality of nozzles of a nozzle stage. Methods of assembling a gas turbine engine also are provided.

    Abstract: An airfoil having a radial direction extending away from an engine axis is provided. The airfoil includes an airfoil wall having an airfoil outer surface and an airfoil inner surface, with the airfoil extending radially from a first end to a second end. The airfoil defines a cooling channel interior to the inner surface with a thickness being defined between the airfoil outer surface and the airfoil inner surface. The thickness varies in the radial direction from the first end to the second end along at least one radial cross-section of the airfoil. A turbine nozzle of a turbine engine is also provided, which may include an outer band, an inner band, and the airfoil.
