Turbomachine rotor blade

Abstract:

A rotor blade for a turbomachine includes an airfoil having a leading edge, a trailing edge, a root, and a tip. The airfoil defines a chord extending from the leading edge to the trailing edge and a span extending from the root to the tip. A first particle-filled damper is positioned within the airfoil between fifty percent of the chord and one hundred percent of the chord.
