Toothed component optimization for gas turbine engine
Abstract:
Methods of manufacturing toothed components for gas turbine engines are provided. The methods include forming a first tooth in the component with a top land, a bottom land, a side wall extending therebetween, and a fillet radius transitioning between the side wall and the bottom land, forming a second tooth in the component adjacent the first tooth, the second tooth having a top land, a bottom land, a side wall extending therebetween and facing the first tooth, and a fillet radius transitioning between the side wall and the bottom land, the bottom land of the second tooth extending toward the bottom land of the first tooth, wherein the bottom lands define a gable area of the component, and forming a stress relief feature in the gable area such that the stress relief feature reduces a stress concentration near the gable area during operation of the toothed component.
