More Information
Summary:A compressor rotor assembly including a plurality of rotor disks axially spaced from each other, each rotor disk extending radially from an inner end to an outer end. Also included is a spacer extending axially from each rotor disk to engage an adjacent spacer extending from an adjacent rotor disk, the spacer and adjacent spacer disposed proximate the outer end of the respective rotor disks, the spacers forming an outer backbone of the compressor rotor assembly. Further included is an inner backbone of the compressor rotor assembly, the inner backbone comprising a plurality of backbone segments, each of the backbone segments extending axially from each rotor disk to engage an adjacent backbone segment extending from an adjacent rotor disk, the backbone segment and the adjacent backbone segment disposed proximate the inner end of the respective rotor disks.
