GAS TURBINE ENGINE AIRFOIL

In one exemplary embodiment, an airfoil for a turbine engine includes an airfoil that has pressure and suction sides and extends in a radial direction from a 0% span position at an inner flow path location to a 100% span position at an airfoil tip. The airfoil has a curve that corresponds to a relat...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In one exemplary embodiment, an airfoil for a turbine engine includes an airfoil that has pressure and suction sides and extends in a radial direction from a 0% span position at an inner flow path location to a 100% span position at an airfoil tip. The airfoil has a curve that corresponds to a relationship between a leading edge dihedral and a span position. The leading edge dihedral has a portion of the curve with a change in dihedral in the range of 90% to 100% span position of greater than 10°. A positive dihedral corresponds to suction side-leaning. A negative dihedral corresponds to pressure side-leaning.
