Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a blade for a turbomachine. The blade includes an airfoil having a pressure side surface and a suction side surface extending from a leading edge to a trailing edge. The airfoil defines a camber line positioned between the pressure side surface and the suction side surface and extending from the leading edge to the trailing edge. A tip shroud couples to the airfoil and defines a cooling cavity therein. The cooling cavity includes one or more turbulators positioned in one or two regions of a forward region, a central region, and an aft region.
