    Abstract: The present application provides a turbine rotor blade including an airfoil shape and a trailing edge shape. The airfoil shape may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table I, while the trailing edge profile is defined by Table II. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances in a unit of distance by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a height of the airfoil in the unit of distance (e.g., inches). The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The airfoil profile sections at Z distances may be joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

    Abstract: Rotor blades and turbomachines are provided. A rotor blade includes a platform and an airfoil extending radially from a root proximate the platform to a tip. The airfoil includes a leading edge and a trailing edge. The airfoil further includes a pressure side surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The airfoil also includes a suction side surface disposed opposite the pressure side surface and extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The leading edge, the trailing edge, the pressure side surface, and the suction side surface collectively define a first profile at the tip and a second profile radially inward from the tip. The first profile includes a suction side overhang, a pressure side overhang, and a pressure side underhang relative to the second profile.

    Abstract: A tip for a turbine component, turbine rotor blade or tip of a blade, is disclosed. The tip includes a tip plate configured to be coupled at a tip end of an airfoil chamber; and a tip rail extending radially from the tip plate, the tip rail disposed near or at a periphery of the tip plate. The trip rail includes a cooling structure constituting at least a portion of the tip rail. The cooling structure is in fluid communication with the airfoil chamber, and includes a plurality of repeating, three dimensional unit cells. Each unit cell defines a flow passage that is in fluid communication with the flow passage of at least one other unit cell. The flow passages of the 3D unit cells create a tortuous cooling passage in at least a portion of the tip rail.

    Abstract: A turbine blade tip cooling system includes a turbine blade having a tip cavity, a tip rail surrounding at least a portion of the tip cavity and at least one internal cooling cavity. The tip rail has an inner rail surface, an outer rail surface, an end surface and at least one tip rail pocket open at the end surface and fluidly connected to the at least one internal cooling cavity that carries a coolant. A tip rail cooling insert attaches to the at least one tip rail pocket, and has insert cooling channel(s) and a coolant collection plenum for directing coolant from the at least one internal cooling cavity to the insert cooling channel(s).

    Abstract: A tip rail cooling insert for attaching into a tip rail pocket in a tip rail of a turbine blade is disclosed. The insert includes a first inner layer defining at least one first insert cooling channel therein, the first inner layer including a pair of spaced legs defining a first coolant collection plenum with at least the tip rail pocket for directing coolant from at least one internal cooling cavity in the turbine blade to the at least one first insert cooling channel. Each of the pair of spaced legs has an angled outer end configured to accommodate rounded inner corners of the tip rail pocket. A first outer layer is on a first side of the first inner layer, and a second outer layer is on a second side of the first inner layer.
