Abstract
Shrouds and shroud segments for gas turbine engines are provided. In one exemplary aspect, a gas turbine engine includes a first rotor blade stage and a second rotor blade stage. The gas turbine engine also includes a shroud formed from a plurality of shroud segments that each have a body and a vane extending from the body. The vane is disposed within the flow path between the first rotor blade stage and the second rotor blade stage to form at least a portion of a nozzle stage. Further, the body of the shroud segment defines an outer wall of the flow path and spans from the first rotor blade stage to the second rotor blade stage. An impingement baffle segment couples the shroud segment with a casing of the gas turbine engine.
