Abstract:
A fan case for a gas turbine engine includes a fan case surrounding a fan with fan blades. A liner is disposed between the fan case and the fan and is spaced a radial distance from the fan case. A torque stop is arranged between the fan case and the liner. A method for reducing fan case liner loads is also disclosed.
