Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A turbine section is provided for a gas turbine engine. The turbine section is annular about a longitudinal axis. The turbine section includes a first turbine with a first inlet and a first outlet; a second turbine with a second inlet and a second outlet; an inter-turbine duct extending from the first outlet to the second inlet and configured to direct an air flow from the first turbine to the second turbine, the inter-turbine duct being defined by a hub and a shroud; and at least a first splitter blade disposed within the inter-turbine duct. The first splitter blade includes a pressure side facing the shroud, a suction side facing the hub, and at least one vortex generating structure positioned on the suction side.
