Partially-metallic blade for a gas turbine

A lightweight, impact-resistant gas turbine blade (110), such as an aircraft engine fan blade, has a metal solid section (114), composite or structural/syntactic foam segments (116), and metal solid spars (118) all attached together to define an airfoil portion (124). The solid section includes the...

Zusammenfassung:A lightweight, impact-resistant gas turbine blade (110), such as an aircraft engine fan blade, has a metal solid section (114), composite or structural/syntactic foam segments (116), and metal solid spars (118) all attached together to define an airfoil portion (124). The solid section includes the leading edge (126), blade tip (136), and trailing edge (128). The segments (116) together are bounded in part by the solid section near the leading edge, blade tip, and trailing edge. The solid spars (118) separate and are attached to the segments (116).
