Fan and compressor research projects carried out at GE Aircraft Engines under NASA sponsorship are described in this paper. Four 1400-fps-tip-speed rotors designed with different airfoil shapes were found to have comparable stall lines but different efficiency trends. A stator placed behind one of these affected its performance somewhat. Adjustments of variable camber inlet guide vanes placed ahead of a 1500 fps stage were found to affect its pumping capability without much affecting its stall line. For the Quiet Engine Program (QEP), two 1160-fps fans and one 1550-fps fan were tested. Development of the high-speed fan revealed the effects on performance of airfoil shape and part-span shroud blockage. The 950-fps variablepitch fan for the Quiet Clean Short-haul Experimental Engine (QCSEE) demonstrated reverse thrust capabilities and a novel method of avoiding large core inlet pressure losses during reverse thrust operation
