ABSTRACT:
An axial flow compressor for a bypass type jet engine has a low pressure stage which includes a one-piece, annular hoop shroud mounted to the airfoil of each of the rotor blades in the low pressure stage to divide the airflow entering the compressor into an outer, bypass airflow path and an inner airflow path directed to the higher pressure stages of the compressor. The hoop shroud is formed of circumferentially wound, parallel fibers such as silicone carbide fibers embedded in a metal matrix material such as titanium, wherein the volume ratio of the hoop shroud is approximately one-third fibers and two-thirds metal matrix material.
