Abstract: A fan assembly is disclosed which includes a rotor having an outer periphery and at least one slot extending radially inwardly through the outer periphery. The slot terminates at a base surface disposed at a radial depth from the outer periphery of the rotor. The fan assembly also includes at least one fan blade that includes an airfoil connected to a root. The root is received in the slot. The root terminates in an inner face having a radial length that is less than the radial depth of the Slot to define a gap between the inner face of the root and the base surface of the slot when the root is bias away to the base surface of the slot. A spacer is disposed within a gap, wherein a spacer is fabricated from a polymer, which may be a composite material such as a polymer embedded with reinforcing materials such as carbon fibers and glass fibers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making an integrally bladed rotor. According to the method, a rotor disk comprising a radially outer rim surface is provided. A portion of the disk outer rim surface is removed, leaving a protrusion on the rotor disk outer rim surface. The disk with material removed is subjected to thermal processing. A blade comprising an airfoil and a base is positioned such that a base surface is in contact with the protrusion, and heat, pressure, and motion are applied between the blade and the disk to friction weld the base surface to the protrusion.

Abstract: Light weight fan blades for turbofan jet engines are disclosed. The fan blades may be fabricated from an aluminum alloy. To enhance the hardness of the leading edge of the fan blade, a titanium sheath may be attached to the leading edges of the fan blades. To prevent galvanic coupling between the titanium and the aluminum, a polymeric liner may be disposed between the protective titanium sheath and the aluminum fan blade. The liner may be fabricated from a polymer material, such as a polyimide or another high performance polymer.

Abstract: A blade for a gas turbine engine. The blade having: an airfoil formed from a first material; a protective sheath disposed on a leading edge of the airfoil, the protective sheath being formed from a second material, the first material being galvanically incompatible with the second material and the first material being less noble than the second material; a non-conductive material disposed between the protective sheath and the airfoil so that they are electrically isolated from each other; a sacrificial anode in contact with the blade, wherein the sacrificial anode is formed from a third material that is less noble than the first material such that it will corrode before the first material if the non-conductive material disposed between the protective sheath and the airfoil is compromised and the first material and the second material are no longer electrically isolated from each other.
