Abstract: An integrally bladed rotor for a gas turbine engine, including: a plurality of blades integrally formed with a hub as a single component, each of the plurality of blades having a blade body extending from the hub to an opposing blade tip surface along a longitudinal axis, each blade body having a pressure side and a suction side each extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge of the blade body; and each of the plurality of blades including a leading edge shield secured to the leading edge of the blade body.

Abstract: Disclosed is an acoustic liner for a gas turbine engine, having: a face sheet; a first plurality of resonator chamber cavities, distributed non-uniformly against the face sheet, the first plurality of resonator chamber cavities defining a first aggregated volume that is configured to target noise attenuation at a first frequency, the first plurality of resonator chamber cavities include first and second resonator chamber cavities fluidly coupled to each other, which have different configurations with respect to each other; and a second plurality of resonator chamber cavities, distributed non-uniformly against the face sheet, the second plurality of resonator chamber cavities define a second aggregated volume that differs from the first aggregated volume and is configured to target noise attenuation at a second frequency, the second plurality of resonator chamber cavities include third and fourth resonator chamber cavities fluidly coupled to each other, which have different configurations with respect to each

Abstract: A component of a rotor system is provided and includes a disk and a reinforcing ring. The disk includes an airfoil element, a web extending radially inwardly from the airfoil element and an arm element extending axially from the web. The reinforcing ring is formed of fiber reinforced materials and is disposed to fit about the arm element.

Abstract: An integrally bladed rotor includes a rotor that has a rim that provides an inner flow surface. Circumferentially spaced apart radially extending airfoils integrally with and from the rotor and joined by an airfoil fillet. An asymmetrical trench is provided in the rim between adjacent airfoils.

Abstract: A mount interface between two rotating gas turbine engine components includes a rigid ring to provide radial deflection restraint. In one example, the rigid ring is comprised of a metal matrix composite material.

Abstract: A seal for a gas turbine engine and a gas turbine engine employing such a seal are disclosed. More specifically, the engine includes a knife edge seal which is better able to withstand the extremely high temperatures and mechanical loads to which gas turbine engine components are increasingly subjected. By moving the knife edge seal to the aft hub and cantilevering its angle off of vertical, thermal and mechanical loads are balanced and thus thermal mechanical fatigue life is improved while low cycle fatigue is maintained.
