Gas turbine engine airfoil

A compressor may include an airfoil configured to rotate about an axis. The airfoil may have a span measured radially from a root of the airfoil to a tip of the airfoil. A compressor case may be radially adjacent to the airfoil. The airfoil and the compressor case may define a clearance between the...

Zusammenfassung:A compressor may include an airfoil configured to rotate about an axis. The airfoil may have a span measured radially from a root of the airfoil to a tip of the airfoil. A compressor case may be radially adjacent to the airfoil. The airfoil and the compressor case may define a clearance between the tip of the airfoil and a radially inner surface of the compressor case. A ratio of the clearance to the span may be between 1.5 to 2.5 percent.
