Optimized aerodynamic profile for a turbine vane, in particular for a nozzle of the third stage of a turbine
View Patent ↗When cold and in the non-coated state, the aerodynamic profile is substantially identical to a nominal profile determined by the Cartesian coordinates X,Y,Z′ given in Table 1, in which the coordinate Z′ is the quotient D/H where D is the distance of the point under consideration from a first reference plane P 0 situated at the base of the nominal profile, and H is the height of the profile measured from the first reference plane to a second reference plane P 1 . The measurements D and H are taken radially relative to the axis of the turbine, while the X coordinate is measured in the axial direction of the turbine.
