Abstract
A turbine nozzle includes airfoil and sidewall surfaces. The airfoil and sidewall surfaces have profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Tables I IV for the pressure and suction sides of the airfoil, and the outer and inner sidewall surfaces, respectively. The X, Y and Z values are distances in inches. The X and Y values for the airfoil, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The profile sections at the Z distances are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape. The X, Y and Z values of Tables III and IV define the outer and inner sidewall surfaces, respectively, of the gas flowpath.

7568890 - LP turbine vane airfoil profile - Owned by Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. (Longueuil, Quebec,CA)

A single stage low pressure turbine vane includes an airfoil having a profile substantially in accordance with at least an intermediate portion of the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table 2. The X and Y values are distances, which when smoothly connected by an appropriate continuing curve, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The profile sections at each distance Z are joined smoothly to one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

7467926 - Stator blade airfoil profile for a compressor - Owned by General Electric Company (Schenectady, NY)

Tenth stage stator vanes for a compressor comprise airfoil profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of x, Y and Z set forth in inches in Table I, wherein the Z coordinate values are perpendicular distances from planes normal to a radius from the compressor centerline and containing the X and Y values with the Z value commencing at zero in the X, Y plane at a radial aerodynamic section of the airfoil. X and Y are coordinate values defining the airfoil profile at each distance Z. The X, Y and Z values may be scaled to provide a scaled-up or scaled-down airfoil section for each stator vane.

7467920 - First and second stage turbine airfoil shapes - Owned by General Electric Company (Schenectady, NY)

The first stage nozzles and buckets have nominal airfoil profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and R set forth in Tables I and II, respectively, and second stage nozzles and buckets have nominal airfoil profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values set forth in Tables III and IV, respectively. The X, Y and R values are in millimeters. R represents distances along a radius from an axis of rotation of the turbine. For each airfoil, X and Y are distances which, when connected by smooth continuous arcs, define airfoil profile sections in planes normal to the radius at each distance R. The profile sections at the R distances for each airfoil are joined smoothly with one another to form the airfoil shape. The airfoil shapes given by the X, Y and R distances lie within envelopes of .+-.4.064 millimeters in a direction normal to any airfoil surface location therealong.
