Abstract:
A vane shroud for a gas turbine engine has a cylindrical shaped body and a hole arranged at a circumference of the body. The hole is for receiving a trunnion from a variable vane. A counterbore is arranged concentrically around the hole on a radially inward facing surface of the body, and receives a trunnion hub from the variable vane. A shrink-fit insert is seated into the counterbore such that the trunnion hub is provided with a contact surface, and the shrink-fit insert is secured to the shroud through an interference fit.
