Axial compressor integrated bladed rotor airfoil design scheme

A compressor assembly of a gas turbine engine of an aircraft, comprising one or more compressor rotors arrayed along an engine central longitudinal axis, at least one compressor rotor of the one or more compressor rotors is an integrally bladed rotor (IBR) including:

• a hub, the hub including:
• a blade platform;
• and
• a hub web extending radially inwardly from the blade platform;
• and
• blades, each blade comprising:
• an airfoil section extending from the blade platform to a blade tip defining a radially outboard extent of the rotor blade to aerodynamically interact with a flow of air for compressing the air;
• and
• a root fillet integrally formed with the blade platform and from which the airfoil section integrally extends;
• wherein the blade platform includes:
• a radially outer surface from which each blade extends;
• and
• a radially inner surface radially offset from the radially outer surface defining a platform thickness between the radially outer surface and the radially inner surface;
• wherein the platform thickness is locally increased at a hub web intersection with the blade platform, defining an increased platform thickness portion, a platform fillet defined at an end of the increased platform thickness portion;
• wherein a hub web axial thickness is locally increased at the hub web intersection with the blade platform, defining an increased web thickness portion, a web fillet defined at an end of the increased web thickness portion;
• wherein the local increase in platform thickness equals the local increase in hub web axial thickness between the platform fillet and the web fillet.

A gas turbine engine of an aircraft, comprising:

• wherein a hub web axial thickness is locally increased at the hub web intersection with the blade platform, defining an increased web thickness portion, a web fillet defined at an end of the increased web thickness portion;
• wherein the local increase in platform thickness equals the local increase in hub web axial thickness between the platform fillet and the web fillet.
