A turbo engine, particularly a gas turbine aircraft engine, has compressor components, turbine components, and at least one combustion chamber. At least one support rib is in flow channel between two turbine components, connected one behind the other. Each support rib diverts a flow through the flow channel. A preferably cylindrical guide element runs within each support rib. Each support rib has a suction side with a greater thickness toward a radially inner flow channel wall as well as toward a radially outer flow channel wall, when viewed in the radial direction. Each support rib has a pressure side with a greater thickness toward a radially inner flow channel wall as well as toward a radially outer flow channel wall, when viewed in the radial direction. The front edge and the rear edge of each support rib are inclined in the meridian direction.
