Abstract

See full text

A rotary component for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of rotor blades operably coupled to a rotating shaft extending along the central axis and an outer casing arranged exterior to the plurality of rotor blades in a radial direction of the gas turbine engine. The outer casing defines a gap between a blade tip of each of the plurality of rotor blades and the outer casing. The outer casing includes a plurality of features formed into an interior surface thereof. Each of the plurality of features includes one or more design parameters that are perturbed about a mean design parameter for stall performance so as to provide a circumferential variation in wake strengths associated with the plurality of rotor blades, thereby reducing operational noise of the gas turbine engine.
