Patent ID: 11242755

Abstract:
Provided is a blade for an axial flow turbomachine, including: a blade profile section; an endwall having a flow path wall surface disposed at least on a hub side of the blade profile section and adapted to demarcate a part of an annular flow path of a working fluid; and a fillet disposed at the boundary between the blade profile section and the flow path wall surface. The fillet is externally shaped so as to have an arc-shaped curved surface having a radius of R as viewed in a cross-section orthogonal to the flow path wall surface and the blade surface of the blade profile section. A narrow portion existing on the flow path wall surface is configured such that the distance d between the outer edge of a projection of the blade profile section onto the flow path wall surface and the outer edge of the flow path wall surface is smaller than the maximum value of the radius R of the fillet. The upper end of the fillet is positioned lower in the narrow portion than that in a region other than the narrow portion, and the lower end of the arc-shaped curved surface coincides with the flow path wall surface along the entire circumference of the blade profile section.
