Abstract:
A rotor blade for a turbine engine includes an airfoil that is connected to a base. The base includes a platform, a neck and a fillet. The fillet extends along at least a portion of an intersection between the platform and the neck. The fillet has a radius that substantially continuously changes as the fillet extends from the platform to the neck.
Abstract:
A diffuser case support structure for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The diffuser case support structure includes a fairing (48) disposed circumferentially about a longitudinal axis (24). The fairing forms at least a portion of a fluid path (C) between a compressor (40) and a combustor (44) of the gas turbine engine (10). The fairing (48) defines a plurality of apertures (50) extending through the fairing (48). At least one spoke (50) extends through at least one respective aperture (50) of the plurality of apertures (50). The at least one spoke (58) is configured to couple an inner diffuser case (54) and an outer diffuser case (56) of the gas turbine engine (10).
