Abstract
An assembly for a turbojet, wherein the assembly includes an outer shroud and an inner shroud that are concentric, wherein the inner shroud is segmented and includes circumferential clearances between the segments thereof. The assembly additionally includes an annular row of stator vanes connecting the inner shroud to the outer shroud, a drive with a reduction ratio that is intended to be coupled to a fan, and a circuit for cooling and for lubricating the drive. The circuit is configured to heat up at least the outer shroud during the operation of the turbine engine such as to circumferentially reduce the circumferential clearances between the segments.
