Abstract:
A rotor assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This rotor assembly includes a first rotor disk, a second rotor disk, a plurality of rotor blades and a plurality of vanes. The first rotor disk is configured to rotate about a rotational axis. The first rotor disk is configured from or otherwise includes disk material. The second rotor disk is configured to rotate about the rotational axis. The rotor blades are arranged circumferentially around the rotational axis. Each of the rotor blades is axially between and mounted to the first rotor disk and the second rotor disk. The vanes are arranged circumferentially around the rotational axis and axially between the first rotor disk and the second rotor disk. The vanes include a first vane, which first vane is configured from or otherwise includes vane material that is different than the disk material.
