Abstract:
An airfoil attachment according to one example of this disclosure includes an airfoil and a disk supporting the airfoil. Further, there are primary contact surfaces and secondary contact surfaces between the airfoil and the disk. The secondary contact surfaces are not engaged during a normal operating condition.
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine includes a fan rotatable about an axis, a compressor section, a combustor in fluid communication with the compressor section, and a turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor. The turbine section includes a fan drive turbine and a second turbine. The second turbine is disposed forward of the fan drive turbine. The fan drive turbine includes at least three rotors and at least one rotor having a bore radius (R) and a live rim radius (r), and a ratio of r/R is between about 2.00 and about 2.30. A speed change system is driven by the fan drive turbine for rotating the fan about the axis.
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine (20) includes a fan (42) rotatable about an axis (A), a compressor section (24), a combustor (56) in fluid communication with the compressor section (24), and a turbine section (28) in fluid communication with the combustor (56). The turbine section (28) includes a fan drive turbine (46), a second turbine that drives a compressor rotor and one other turbine driving another compressor rotor of the compressor section (24). The second turbine (54) is disposed forward of the fan drive turbine (46). The fan drive turbine (46) includes at least three rotors and at least one rotor having a bore radius (R) and a live rim radius (r), and a ratio of r/R is between about 2.00 and about 2.30. A speed change system (48) is driven by the fan drive turbine (46) for rotating the fan (42) about the axis (A).
Abstract:
An airfoil includes an airfoil body that has a leading edge and a trailing edge and a first sidewall and a second sidewall that is spaced apart from the first sidewall. The first sidewall and the second sidewall join the leading edge and the trailing edge and at least partially define a cavity in the airfoil body. A damper member is enclosed in the cavity and is free-floating within the cavity.
