Rotor blade root spacer for arranging between a rotor disk and a root of a rotor blade

摘要

A rotor assembly is provided that includes a rotor blade, a root spacer, and a rotor disk with a slot. The rotor blade includes a blade root arranged within the slot. The blade root includes a root base segment and a pair of root side segments. The root base segment is laterally separated from the rotor disk by the root side segments. The root spacer is arranged within the slot, and includes a side surface that extends radially between an inner surface and an outer surface. The side surface is approximately laterally aligned with an intersection between the root base segment and a first of the root side segments. The outer surface engages the root base segment.
