Fan disk

A fan disk is the central hub of a fan in a turbofan engine. Fan blades are attached to the fan disk, which is rotated by a shaft driven by a gas turbine. In modern passenger aircraft, most of the propulsive thrust comes from fans, which are driven by gas turbines. A single stage fan was developed to produce high thrust and act as a multi-bladed propeller. Fan disks are attached to a shaft that is driven by a multistage Low Pressure Turbine (LPT) to reduce mechanical stress. Air enters the front
