Abstract

A rim-rotor assembly has an annular structure including a composite rim and a hub. Blades project from the hub, tips of the blades contacting the annular structure, the blades configured to be loaded in compression against the annular structure. A thermal barrier is in the annular structure, the thermal barrier defining at least part of a radially inward surface of the annular structure. The tips of the blades contact the thermal barrier, the thermal barrier being a thermal barrier coating.
