  • abradable liner 116 e.g. a seal section
  • abradable liner 116 material is removed by the cutting action of cutting edge 134. It is contemplated that the reduced friction energy consumption as compared with traditional blades tends to reduce heat generation during rubbing of abradable liner 116 and improves the life of the integrally bladed rotor 111.

  • the angle between land 138 and pressure side 130 is shown and described herein as approximately ninety degrees, the angle can vary depending on the application. For example, a smaller angle tends to increase cutting capability, but there may be a trade-off of reduced cutting edge strength.
  • a relief angle ⁇ between land 138 and chamfered surface 136 can range from 2 to 6 degrees. Relief angle ⁇ reduces the contact between blade tip surface 128 and abradable liner 116, tending to reduce friction force and frictional heat generation as compared to traditional blades.
