TIP LEAKAGE FLOW DIRECTIONALITY CONTROL

摘要

A gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an airfoil having a tip wall that joins outer spanwise ends of a suction sidewall and a pressure sidewall, a tip leakage control channel recessed into an outer surface of the tip wall, a tip leakage control vane integrally formed on the tip wall adjacent to the tip leakage control channel and an air seal radially outward of the tip wall and positioned to minimize leakage at the tip wall.
