BLADE-PLATFORM ASSEMBLY FOR SUPERSONIC FLOW

摘要

An assembly including an airfoil and a platform on which the airfoil may be mounted, the surface of the platform presenting a circumferential depression between a leading edge and trailing edge of the airfoil, a deepest section of the depression being situated in an upstream half of the airfoil. A skeleton curve designates a curve of variations of a skeleton angle of the airfoil as a function of position along the axis of the wheel, and a linearized skeleton curve designates a curve of variations of an angle as a function of position along the axis of the wheel, the curve being a straight line connecting together points representing the skeleton angle respectively at 10% and at 90% of the axial extent of the airfoil from the leading edge. In a vicinity of the platform, the skeleton curve presents a raised portion that lies above the linearized skeleton curve.
