Abstract: A turbine rotor blade includes: a blade body including a pressure surface and a suction surface; and a tip shroud on a tip portion of the blade body, the tip shroud being inclined outward in a radial direction from the pressure surface to the suction surface in an axial direction. The tip shroud includes a fin at a center portion in a circumferential direction, the fin extending radially outward, a pressure-side tip shroud on the pressure surface side, and a suction-side tip shroud. The suction-side tip shroud includes a suction-side contact block at a front edge end of the tip shroud. The pressure-side tip shroud includes a pressure-side contact block at a rear edge end of the tip shroud, the suction-side contact block includes a first surface facing in the circumferential direction, and the pressure-side contact block includes a second surface facing in a direction opposite to the circumferential direction.

Abstract: A turbine blade designing method is for designing a turbine blade formed using a metal material in which creep including diffusion creep and dislocation creep occurs by heating. The turbine blade designing method includes: acquiring temperature distribution data relating to temperature distribution in the turbine blade to be heated; acquiring creep strength distribution data relating to distribution of the creep strength required for the turbine blade to be heated; from the correlation data, based on the temperature distribution data and the creep strength distribution data, setting the crystal grain size of a high-temperature portion that is the diffusion creep temperature range of the turbine blade to a size coarser than the reference crystal grain size, and setting the crystal grain size of a low-temperature portion that is the dislocation creep temperature range of the turbine blade to a size finer than the reference crystal grain size.

Abstract: A flow path width at a hub endwall of a blade main body decreases toward a minimum width from a leading edge, and increases toward a trailing edge from the minimum width, the flow path width at a reference blade height aparted toward a tip side from the hub endwall of the blade main body gradually decreases toward the trailing edge from the leading edge, and an axial chord length position of the minimum flow path widths at respective blade height shift toward a transition to the trailing edge side from the hub endwall toward the tip side of the blade main body and coincides with the trailing edge at the reference blade height.

Abstract: Gas turbine blades which simplify the formation of cooling channels provided inside the turbine blades while simultaneously avoiding loss of turbine blade strength and rigidity due to forming of the cooling channels. Cooling channels provided in the interior of a gas turbine blade include a plurality of straight channel-like base-side elongated holes extending in a longitudinal direction at a base side of the turbine blade, a plurality of straight channel-like tip-side elongated holes extending in a longitudinal direction at a tip side of the turbine blade, and a plurality of communicating hollow portions interposed at connection portions between the two types of elongated holes to allow the two types of elongated holes to communicate with each other, and have larger cross-sectional areas than the channel cross-sectional areas of both elongated holes. The communicating hollow portions are formed to match the position of a platform portion of the turbine blade.
