AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing fan rotor platforms struggle to maintain rigidity and stability under high loads and centrifugal forces, while also facing challenges in terms of aerodynamic performance and space constraints.

Method used

The composite material platform adopts a honeycomb structure, with a three-dimensional woven outer layer and a layered inner layer. The honeycomb structure enhances impact resistance and rigidity, while the layered inner layer limits deformation. The platform's stiffness and centrifugal force resistance are optimized by adjusting the thickness and structural design.

Benefits of technology

While reducing platform density, it improves mechanical strength and resistance to centrifugal force, enhances platform stability and aerodynamic performance, incorporates acoustic features to reduce noise, and simplifies the manufacturing process.
