Abstract:
A turbine blade includes an airfoil having a tip shroud. The tip shroud has an edge, and the edge has a profile substantially in accordance with values of X and Y in a Cartesian coordinate system set forth in Table 1 at points 1-30. The X and Y values represent distances that may be proportionally scaled by a common multiplier which, once scaled and connected, define the profile of the edge of the tip shroud. The profile of the edge lies in an envelope within +/−20%, +/−10% or +/−0% in a direction normal to any location along the edge set forth by the points in Table 1.
