Abstract

A turbine engine assembly includes a first case structure (64; 102) with a first flange (66; 104) and a second case structure (68; 106) that includes a second flange (70; 108). The second flange (70; 108) is configured for securement to the first flange (66; 104) at a connection interface (58; 100). At least one steam conduit (76, 78; 110, 112) is in thermal communication with the connection interface (58; 100) and configured to receive a portion of a flow of steam (52) to heat the connection interface (58; 100). Heating the connection interface (58; 100) provides for control of a thermal gradient generated by a difference in temperature in temperatures on either side of the connection interface (58; 100).
