The nozzle sleeve includes a support and a liner. The support includes a first mount and a second mount axially spaced from the first mount. The liner extends axially along and circumferentially about the support. The liner is axially and circumferentially anchored to the support through the first mount. The liner is circumferentially anchored to the support through the second mount. The actuation system is coupled to the support. The actuation system is configured to move the nozzle sleeve axially along the axis relative to the nozzle wall.
