Abstract

A vane assembly for directing airflow through an elbow section of an air duct associated with a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of first vanes and at least two second vanes intersecting the plurality of first vanes. Each first vane includes a first plate and a first vibration inhibition device. An upstream end of the first plate is coupled to the first vibration inhibition device. The first plate has a first thickness and the first vibration inhibition device has a first dimension that is greater than the first thickness. Each second vane includes a second plate and a second vibration inhibition device. An upstream end of the second plate is coupled to the second vibration inhibition device. The second plate has a second thickness and the second vibration inhibition device has a second dimension that is greater than the second thickness.
