Fan containment cases for fan casings in gas turbine engines, fan blade containment systems, and methods for producing the same

摘要

Fan blade containment systems and methods for producing the same are provided. The fan blade containment system comprise a first ballistic material configured to be wrapped in overlapping layers around a fan casing to form a containment covering of a fan containment case for the fan casing. A plurality of patches comprised of a second ballistic material are configured to be loosely disposed between adjacent overlapping layers of the first ballistic material with each patch partially overlapping a circumferentially adjacent patch.
