COMPOSITE AIRFOIL ASSEMBLY FOR A TURBINE ENGINE

A composite airfoil assembly (110, 310) for a turbine engine (10, 88). The composite airfoil assembly (110, 310) has an airfoil outer surface (142, 342) defining opposing pressure and suction sides (132, 134), which extend between a leading edge (124) and a trailing edge (126). The composite airfoil...

Zusammenfassung:A composite airfoil assembly (110, 310) for a turbine engine (10, 88). The composite airfoil assembly (110, 310) has an airfoil outer surface (142, 342) defining opposing pressure and suction sides (132, 134), which extend between a leading edge (124) and a trailing edge (126). The composite airfoil assembly (110, 310) includes a woven core (182), a skin (184) applied to at least a portion of a core exterior (194), and a cladding (120, 150, 152, 154, 156, 158, 320, 350, 354) located adjacent the trailing edge (126), the leading edge (124), a root (128), or a tip (130), where a portion of a skin outer surface (190, 390) defines a first portion (142a, 342a) of the airfoil outer surface (142, 342) and a cladding outer surface (216, 226, 417) defines a second portion (142b, 342b) of the airfoil outer surface (142, 342).
