Zusammenfassung:A nozzle assembly 130 is provided which is, in part, formed of a low coefficient of thermal expansion material. The assembly 130 includes a nozzle fairing 150 formed of the low coefficient of thermal expansion material and includes a metallic strut 170 extending radially through the nozzle fairing 150. Load is transferred from the nozzle fairing 150 to a static structure in either of two ways: first, the strut 170 may receive the load directly and/or second, load may be transferred from the nozzle fairing 150 to at least one of the inner and outer support rings 140, 160. Further, the nozzle fairing 150 and strut 170 may allow for internal airflow for cooling.
