Patent

CA 2364159

A variable stator vane assembly (56) for a gas turbine engine (10) including a bushing (120) that facilitates extending a useful life of the stator vane assembly is described. The stator vane assembly includes a spacer (126) and a vane (74) secured to an engine casing (58). The bushing is between the spacer and vane, and prevents the spacer and the vane from contacting the engine casing. The bushing is fabricated from several materials formed in a matrix, such that at least a portion of the bushing is electrically conductive. During engine operation, a conductive path is realized through the bushing that discharges electrical charges.
