Abstract:
An airfoil comprises leading and trailing edges with pressure and suction surfaces defining a chord length therebetween. The pressure and suction surfaces extend from a root section of the airfoil to a tip section. A tip shelf is formed along the tip section between the pressure surface and a tip shelf wall spaced between the pressure surface and the suction surface. A squealer pocket is formed along the tip section between the tip shelf wall and a squealer tip wall extending from the suction surface. The tip shelf extends from within 10% of the cord length measured from the leading edge to within 10% of the chord length measured from the trailing edge. The squealer pocket extends from within 10% of the chord length measured from the leading edge to terminate between 10% and 25% of the chord length measured from the trailing edge.
