The mass of the rotor assembly in a gas turbine engine is the total mass of the rotating components that make up the rotor assembly. This includes components such as the rotor shaft, disk, and any other rotating elements that are part of the assembly.
The formula to calculate the mass of the rotor assembly is as follows:
- Mass of Rotor Assembly is the total mass of the rotor assembly, typically measured in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb).
- Mass of Rotor Shaft is the mass of the central shaft that connects the rotating components, usually measured in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb).
- Mass of Rotor Disk is the mass of the disk attached to the rotor shaft, which may contain blade attachments or other components, typically measured in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb).
- Mass of Other Rotating Components includes the mass of any additional rotating components that are part of the rotor assembly, measured in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb)
