Tip treatment bars for gas turbine engines

摘要

A tip treatment bar (16) for a gas turbine engine has a damping coating (24) applied to one or more sides. The coating (24) may be a hard ceramic, for example Magnesia Alumina Spinel, and this may be plasma sprayed directly on to the bar (16) or applied to a substrate (26) which may then be applied to the bar (16).
