A stator assembly 18 for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. Various construction details relating to the mounting of a stator vane 42 in the engine are developed. In one embodiment, the vane is: bolted at a downstream flange 112 of the vane to an inner support 54; radially splined to a support such as the outer support 56 at an upstream flange 125 which is spaced axially from the downstream flange; and, is adapted to slidably engage the outer support to provide sealing contact between the vane and the remainder of the engine.

A stator assembly for a rotary machine having an annular flow path for working medium gases, an inner support inwardly of the flow path and an outer support outwardly of the flow path, which comprises: an array of stator vanes extending between the inner support and the outer support, at least one of which has a downstream inner flange which is adapted to be attached to the inner support to restrain the vane against axial, radial and circumferential movement; a downstream outer flange spaced radially from the downstream inner flange which abuttingly engages the outer support in the axial direction and slidably engages the outer support in the radial direction; an upstream outer flange spaced axially from the downstream outer and inner flanges which slidably engages the outer support in the radial direction and which is adapted to abuttingly engage the outer support in the circumferential direction; means for restraining each vane against axial, radial and circumferential movement which includes a means for attaching the downstream inner flange to the inner support to restrain the vane against axial, radial and circumferential movement, and a means for restraining the vane against circumferential movement which engages the upstream outer flange and the outer support.
