Abstract
An unevenly loaded turbine rotor blade is disclosed herein, the blade including a power-extracting region adapted for radially-varied (relative to the axis of rotation) power extraction per mass flow rate. The pitch and/or shape of the airfoil at a first radial position may be configured, so that power extraction per mass flow rate at the first radial position is different than power extraction per mass flow rate at a second radial position. Thus, the power-extracting region may be advantageously configured to take advantage of a non-uniform flow profile across a rotor plane such as may be induced using a shrouded turbine.
