Abstract: According to one aspect, a fan containment case for a gas turbine engine is provided which includes a barrel having a first band of material on an outside of the barrel. The first band is made of carbon fiber composite. The barrel further includes a second band of material inboard of the fan case and made of poly p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole (PBO) composite. The barrel also includes a third band of material made of carbon fiber composite inboard of the second band.

Abstract: A fan case for use in a gas turbine engine of an aircraft includes an outer shroud and a liner extending along the outer shroud. The fan case provides a protective band that blocks fan blades from being thrown out of the fan case in case of a blade-off event in which a fan blade is released during operation of the gas turbine engine.

Abstract: A fan assembly for use in a gas turbine engine of an aircraft includes a fan disk having a number of fan blades and a windage shield coupled to the fan disk to move therewith. The fan assembly supplies air for use in the engine. The windage shield rotates with the fan disk during operation of the gas turbine engine and directs air supplied by the fan blade.

Abstract: An embodiment of a gas turbine engine having a liner and casing is disclosed. The liner is disposed between the casing and a rotatable turbomachinery component. In one form, the rotatable turbomachinery component is a turbofan engine. The liner can be thin relative to a distance between the liner and the casing. Protrusions can be used between the liner and the casing. The protrusions can be a rib and can extend from the casing or the liner. An insert, such as an abradable surface, can be used with the liner. A filler can be used in the space between the liner and the casing.
