Abstract: Fan blade containment system includes a composite fan case with an annular composite shell extending from forward flange downstream to aft flange, and circumferentially varying thickness portion of composite shell. Annular composite back sheet spaced radially outwardly of annular composite shell has annular filler layer disposed radially therebetween. Annular forward and aft seams between annular composite shell and composite back sheet may axially trap filler layer. Circumferentially varying thickness portion may include aftwardly extending fingers of composite back sheet in aft seam and first thickness of fingers thicker than second thickness of composite shell circumferentially between fingers. Composite shell may extend from forward flange to aft flange. Aft flange bolted to metallic flange of metallic fan casing aft of aft flange. Containment system may circumscribe and surround fan and fan blades of gas turbine engine fan section.

Abstract: Fan blade containment system includes circular tile layer of annular ceramic tiles attached to and extending radially inwardly from a shell, radially inner and outer annular surfaces of ceramic tiles bonded to a radially inner composite layer and the shell respectively with elastomeric inner and outer adhesive layers respectively. Elastomeric adhesive layers between circumferentially adjacent overlapped or scarfed edges along circumferential edges of the ceramic tiles overlap and mate along oppositely facing surfaces of adjacent ones of the ceramic tiles. Inner and outer adhesive layers and elastomeric adhesive layer may be a double-sided adhesive foam tape. Scarfed edges may be bevels or rabbets. Shell may be made of a metal or composite material. Fan blade containment system may be bonded to and extend inwardly from fan case circumscribing fan blades of a fan. Inner composite layer and composite outer shell may be co-cured with ceramic tiles therebetween.
