Abstract

See full text

Turbine assemblies for gas turbine engines are provided. In one embodiment, a turbine assembly includes a row of circumferentially adjacent turbine rotor blades, each blade in the row of blades including an airfoil defining a chord extending axially between opposite leading and trailing edges of the airfoil. The chords in a mid-span region of each blade are shorter than the chords in span regions adjacent to the blade root and the blade tip. In another exemplary embodiment, a turbine assembly includes a row of circumferentially adjacent turbine stator vanes, each vane in the row of vanes including an airfoil defining a chord extending axially between opposite leading and trailing edges of the airfoil. The chords in a mid-span region of each vane are shorter than the chords in span regions adjacent to the vane root and the vane tip. A turbine rotor blade for a gas turbine engine also is provided.
