Abstract: A turbine vane of a gas turbine, especially a gas turbine aircraft engine, is disclosed. The turbine vane includes a vane base body with an outer surface forming a suction side and a pressure side, the outer surface of the vane base body being at least partially coated with a thermal barrier coating. The thermal barrier coating extends continuously or uninterruptedly at least largely over the suction side and largely over the pressure side of the surface of the vane base body, with the layer thickness of the thermal barrier coating being variable or adjustable.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for attaching a rotor blade to a rotor, particularly for a gas turbine, is disclosed. The rotor blade has a blade vane and a blade root, such that the blade vane can be attached to or anchored in the rotor by the blade root. The blade root is configured asymmetrically, such that the front region of the blade root as seen in the direction of rotation of the rotor blade is provided with more anchoring teeth than a rear region of the blade root as seen in the direction of rotation of the rotor blade.
