  • Patent number: 10544681
    Abstract: A blade has an airfoil, and the blade is configured for use with a turbomachine. The airfoil has a throat distribution measured at a narrowest region in a pathway between adjacent blades, at which adjacent blades extend across the pathway between opposing walls to aerodynamically interact with a fluid flow. The airfoil defines the throat distribution, and the throat distribution reduces aerodynamic loss and improves aerodynamic loading on the airfoil. A trailing edge of the airfoil deviates from an axial plane and a circumferential plane. A corresponding turbomachine comprising a plurality of such blades is also provided.
    Type: Grant
