Abstract:
A spool for a gas turbine engine includes at least one rotor disk defined along an axis of rotation and at least one rotor ring defined along the axis of rotation, with the rotor ring being in contact with the rotor disk. The rotor disk and rotor ring are contoured to define a smooth rotor stack load path.
