Zusammenfassung:A turbine interstage structure for a gas turbine engine that includes a first stage disk and a second stage disk. A central plenum is defined by a an inner band for supporting nozzle vanes, a forward stator plate and an aft stator plate wherein the forward stator plate is spaced-apart from the aft stator plate, and an inner boundary. A forward mid-seal positioned between the inner boundary and the forward stator plate. An aft mid-seal positioned between the inner boundary and the aft stator plate; and wherein the inner boundary is a solid annular component.
