Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system is provided with a turbine exhaust strut configured to provide a bi-directional airflow. The turbine exhaust strut includes a first portion having a first flow passage configured to flow a fluid in a first direction between inner and outer exhaust walls of a turbine exhaust section, and a second portion having a second flow passage configured to flow the fluid in a second direction between the inner and outer exhaust walls of the turbine exhaust section. Furthermore, the first and second directions are opposite from one another.
