GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH COMPRESSOR DISK DEFLECTORS

摘要

A compressor section for use in a gas turbine engine is comprised of a plurality of compressor stages, with each stage including a disk having an inner periphery defining a bore that faces a shaft. A flow path flows in a generally axial direction between the shaft and the bores of each disk. At least one deflector is positioned between a pair of adjacent bores to direct the air flow radially outwardly into a cavity formed between an associated pair of adjacent disks.
