Abstract

An apparatus for a turbine engine includes a monolithic engine structure. The monolithic body structure includes an inner case, an outer case, a plurality of vanes, a flowpath, a reservoir cavity and a plurality of feed passages. The inner case extends axially along and circumferentially around an axis. The inner case forms an inner boundary of the flowpath in the monolithic engine structure. The outer case extends axially along and circumferentially around the inner case. The outer case forms an outer boundary of the flowpath in the monolithic engine structure. The vanes are arranged circumferentially around the axis. Each of the vanes extends radially across the flowpath from the inner case to the outer case. The vanes include a first vane. The reservoir cavity is embedded within the outer case. The feed passages are fluidly coupled with the reservoir cavity and extend through the first vane.
