GAS TURBINE ENGINE ROTOR CASING TREATMENT

摘要

An annular casing for a rotor of a gas turbine engine includes a casing treatment having at least one groove defined in the annular casing wall with an open end defined in an inner surface of the annular casing wall, and a perforated sheet overlapping the open end of the at least one groove. The perforated sheet includes a plurality of apertures therethrough in fluid communication with the at least one groove. A method of reducing flow losses through a flow path having a rotor with a plurality of rotating blades extending therethrough is also presented.
