    摘要: A method enables a variable vane assembly for a gas turbine engine including a casing and an inner shroud to be assembled. The method comprises providing at least one variable vane including a radially inner spindle that has a substantially circular cross-sectional shape, and coupling the variable vane radially between the casing and the inner shroud such that the radially inner spindle is rotatably coupled within an opening extending through the inner shroud, wherein the opening has a non-circular cross-sectional profile.

    摘要: A gas turbine engine blade is laser shock peened by laser shock peening a thin airfoil of the blade, forming a laser shock induced twist in the airfoil, and shot peening a portion of the airfoil to counter the laser shock induced twist in the airfoil. The shot peening may be performed before or after the laser shock peening. The shot peening may be applied over a laser shock peened surface formed by the laser shock peening. The shot peening may be performed asymmetrically on asymmetrically shot peened pressure and suction side areas of pressure and suction sides, respectively, of the airfoil. A shot peened patch near a blade tip may be formed on one of pressure and suction sides of the airfoil wherein the airfoil extends radially outwardly from a blade platform to the blade tip of the blade.

    摘要: A gas turbine engine airfoil is repaired by machining away airfoil material along at least a portion of at least one of leading and trailing edges and a radially outer tip forming at least one cut-back area and forming a weldment by welding successive beads of welding material into the cut-back area. Desired finished dimensions of the repaired airfoil are obtained by machining away some of the weld bead material in the weldment and then deep compressive residual stresses are imparted in a pre-stressed region extending into and encompassing the weldment and a portion of the airfoil adjacent the weldment. The compressive residual stresses may be are imparted after either rough machining or final finishing thereafter of the weldment. The cut-back area may extend up to about 90% of the airfoil's span and have a maximum cut-back depth up to about 0.22 inches.

    摘要: A method for laser shock peening a gas turbine engine blade includes laser shock peening a thin airfoil of the blade, forming a laser shock induced twist in the airfoil, and altering a root of the blade to counter the laser shock induced twist in the airfoil. The altering may be done after the laser shock peening. The altering may be done before the laser shock peening during casting or forging of the blade or during a machining or broaching procedure which cuts a shape of the root. One embodiment of the altering includes forming the root with an altered root centerline having an altered centerline angle with respect to a predetermined root centerline designed for a non-laser shock peened airfoil of the blade.
