Blade retention features for turbomachines
A turbomachine includes a rotatable annular outer drum rotor connected to a first plurality of blades. Each of the first plurality of blades includes a blade root portion secured to the rotatable annular outer drum rotor. Each of the blade root portions includes one or more structural radial retention features for radially retaining each of the blade root portions within the rotatable annular outer drum and one or more axial retention features for axially retaining each of the blade root portions within the rotatable annular outer drum.
TURBOMACHINE WITH COAXIAL PROPELLERS
The invention relates to a nubomachine with a longitudinal axis, comprising two, respectively upstream (122) and downstream, coaxial outer propellers (122), characterised in that at least some of the blades (148) of the upstream propeller (122) comprise at least one internal air circulation chimney (150) that communicates with air-bleeding openings (152) in tire boundary layers of the blades (148). and communicates with air outflow openings (158) on the radially outer end thereof, the air-bleeding openings (152) leading to opening inlets (152a) on tire passive surfaces (156) of the blades (148). the inlets (152a) of the air-bleeding openings being radially arranged in an area (H1) contained between 10% and 45% of the radial dimension (H2) of the blades (148). measured above turd from the radial height of the blades for which the tangent of the leading edge (138) of the blades is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, and the inlets (152a) of the air bleeding openings being arranged in an area contained between 0% and 30% of the local chord of the blades (148), measured at the level of said inlets (152a) and from the leading edges (138) of tire blades (148).
