PLATFORM FOR AN AIRFOIL OF A GAS TURBINE ENGINE

Abstract:

An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil that includes an airfoil section that extends from a root section. The airfoil section extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge in a chordwise direction and extends between a tip portion and the root section in a radial direction. The airfoil section defines a pressure side and a suction side separated in a thickness direction. A platform is dimensioned to receive a retention pin to mount the platform to a rotatable hub. The platform includes a plurality of composite layers that define an internal cavity. A filler includes a stacked composite structure in the internal cavity that extends between the plurality of composite layers.
