Abstract: An axial turbine for aeronautical applications has a casing housing a stator, which is provided with an array of airfoil profiles, which are positioned angularly equidistant from one other about the axis of the turbine, define associated spaces between one another for the passage of a flow of gas and are hinged to an annular structure, each one about an associated hinge axis incident to the axis of the turbine; in service, the airfoil profiles are simultaneously actuated to rotate by an identical angle of adjustment by means of a ring actuated by actuators outside the casing and connected to each airfoil profile via an associated lever.
