Abstract: A blade for a compressor rotor including a blade root at a first end of the blade connected to the compressor rotor and a blade tip extending from second end of the blade. The blade tip extends up to 20% of a span of the blade from the second end towards the first end. The blade tip is disposed such that a first segment of the blade tip defines a positive dihedral angle and a second segment of the blade tip defines a negative dihedral angle. The positive and negative dihedral angles defining a twist of the blade tip relative to the face of the blade, wherein the blade remains untwisted along the span from outside of the blade tip.

Abstract: A blade for a compressor rotor comprises a blade root at a first end of the blade extending from a rotor body of the compressor, and a blade tip at a second end of the blade. The first end and the second end are disposed on a span of the blade. The blade root and the blade tip define a face of the blade between them. The blade tip comprises a first extremity and a second extremity. The blade tip is disposed such that a first segment of the blade tip defines a positive dihedral angle with the face of the blade. The first segment extends from a first point in the blade tip to the first extremity of the blade tip. A second segment of the blade tip defines a negative dihedral angle with the face of the blade. The second segment extends from a second point in the blade tip to the second extremity of the blade tip.
