Full-span forward swept airfoils for gas turbine engines

Rotor of a gas turbine engines having a rotor hub and a plurality of blades extending from the rotor hub, wherein each blade has a full-span forward sweep along a leading edge of the blade that starts at an airfoil root of the blade at the hub and extends to a blade tip, wherein a sweep of a blade i...

More Information
Summary:Rotor of a gas turbine engines having a rotor hub and a plurality of blades extending from the rotor hub, wherein each blade has a full-span forward sweep along a leading edge of the blade that starts at an airfoil root of the blade at the hub and extends to a blade tip, wherein a sweep of a blade is a percentage of a root axial chord length of the respective blade.
