Friction damper for gas turbine engine blades

A friction damper (50) provides friction damping for gas turbine engine airfoils to reduce vibrations thereto. The friction damper (50) includes a plate (52) underlying radially outer shrouds (30) of two adjacent airfoils (20). Friction generated between an outer surface (53) of the plate (52) and u...

Zusammenfassung:A friction damper (50) provides friction damping for gas turbine engine airfoils to reduce vibrations thereto. The friction damper (50) includes a plate (52) underlying radially outer shrouds (30) of two adjacent airfoils (20). Friction generated between an outer surface (53) of the plate (52) and undersides (42) of the adjacent shrouds (30) reduces undesirable vibrations in the airfoils (20).
