  • Compression system for a turbine engine
    Patent number: 10294965
    Abstract: A blisk fan is provided for a turbine engine propulsion system. The blisk fan includes a hub configured to rotate about a rotational axis at a maximum rotational speed, and a plurality of blades extending radially outward from the hub to define a fan leading edge tip diameter. Each of the blades has a first vibratory mode at a natural frequency, which is greater than a first fan order and less than a second fan order at the maximum rotational speed. The compression system preferably has a balance factor of the compression system between 1.9 and 3.2.
    Type: Grant
