COMPOSITE AIRFOIL FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE

摘要

Stationary vanes and rotating blades of a gas turbine engine are disclosed that include airfoils (112,12) formed from ceramic matrix composite materials. The airfoils (112,12) include at least one layer of ceramic-containing matrix material (61) and ceramic-containing reinforcing fibers (62) suspended in the matrix material (61). A core (130,30) of the airfoils (112,12) is surrounded by the at least one layer of ceramic-containing fiber/matrix material (61).
