Zusammenfassung:A method includes providing a ceramic insert on a mandrel, the mandrel and the ceramic insert together define a peripheral working surface, forming a fiber preform by wrapping a fiber layer around the mandrel and the ceramic insert so as to conform to the peripheral working surface, removing the mandrel from the fiber preform to leave a cavity in the fiber preform, the ceramic insert remaining in the fiber preform and bordering the cavity, and densifying the fiber preform with a ceramic matrix to form a gas turbine engine component.
