Turbine blade airfoil profile

A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine has an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced-apart pressure and suction sides to provide an external airfoil surface extending from a platform in a spanwise direction to a tip. The external airfoil surface is formed in substantial conformance with multiple cross-sectional profiles of the airfoil defined by a set of Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 1, the Cartesian coordinates provided by an axial coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, a circumferential coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, and a span location.

Airfoil having a spline fillet

An airfoil for a gas turbine engine, which has an airfoil body extending in a spanwise direction and in a chordwise direction, a platform located at an inner end and/or an outer end of the airfoil body, and a fillet at a junction between the airfoil body and the platform. The fillet has a radius distribution at a given chordwise location, the radius distribution varying from the platform to the airfoil body in the spanwise direction. The radius distribution defines a local minimum, the radius of the fillet at the given chordwise location increasing from the local minimum along the spanwise direction toward both of the airfoil and the platform. A local maximum of the radius distribution is offset from the local minimum along the spanwise direction, the radius decreasing from the local maximum along the spanwise direction toward both of the airfoil and the platform.

Rotor for turbine engine and turbine engine comprising this rotor

A rotor for a turbomachine includes a disc and a plurality of blades fixed to the disc. Each blade of the plurality of blades is fixed to the disc via a lattice structure configured so that a tensile force applied to the lattice structure induces a change in the angle of incidence of the blade. The blades and the lattice structures are configured so that: (i) when the rotor is stationary, the distribution of the angles of incidence of the blades around the disc is aperiodic, and (ii) when the rotor is rotating at a predetermined rotational speed, the angles of incidence of the blades are identical.
