    摘要: A fan for a turbofan gas turbine engine, the fan comprising a rotor hub and a plurality of radially extending fan blades integral with the hub to form an integrally bladed rotor. Each fan blade defines a leading edge. A hub radius (RHUB) is the radius of the leading edge at the hub relative to a centerline of the fan. A tip radius (RTIP) is the radius of the leading edge at a tip of the fan blade relative to the centerline of the fan. The ratio of the hub radius to the tip radius (RHUB/RTIP) is at least less than 0.29. In a particular embodiment, this ratio is between 0.25 and 0.29. In another particular embodiment, this ratio is less than or equal to 0.25.

    摘要: A multi-stage axial compressor with an inner wall including a step portion for each of the compressor stages. Each step portion is defined along a respective stage. Each step portion may extend over at least a majority of an axial length of the stage. Each step portion may optionally include a point aligned with a maximum thickness of the airfoil portions of the rotor blades and a point aligned with a maximum thickness of the stator vanes. Adjacent step portions are connected by a transition portion converging toward a central axis of the compressor from the upstream step to the downstream step. Each transition portion has a steeper slope than that of the adjacent step portions. A method of directing flow through a multi-stage axial flow compressor is also discussed.

    摘要: A compressor airfoil of a gas turbine engine includes a pressure side and a suction side of the airfoil extending downstream from a stagnation point, the suction side including a suction side surface portion within a leading edge region, and a main suction side airfoil surface downstream from the suction side surface portion and extending contiguously therewith. The suction side surface portion having a compound curvature profile which includes at least a leading edge having a first curvature profile and a chamfered surface having a second curvature profile different from the first curvature profile. The chamfered surface being contiguous with and extending immediately downstream from the leading edge. The first curvature profile being curved. The second curvature profile of the chamfered surface being substantially flat and defining a substantially straight-line profile in a cross-section transverse to the span-wise axis of the airfoil.
