Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is an airfoil array segment (110, 120, 130, 140, 150) of an airfoil array for a turbomachine, the airfoil array segment including a platform (10) having a platform surface, as well as at least two airfoils (20, 30). The platform surface has a depression (111, 121, 131, 141, 151) which extends up to the first airfoil and contacts the pressure side (21) of the first airfoil downstream of 80% of the axial chord (g) downstream of the leading edges (23, 33) and which contacts the pressure side (21) of the first airfoil downstream up to no more than 80% of the axial chord (g) downstream of the leading edges (23, 33). At least one lowest point (112, 122) of the depression is located at least 90% of the axial chord (g) downstream of the leading edges (23, 33). Also disclosed are an airfoil array, an airfoil passage, a platform, a turbomachine, and an aircraft engine.
