摘要

A blade 204 is presented. The blade 204 includes a proximal end 220 and a distal end 214, and a pronounced camber 302 running between the proximal end to the distal end, wherein the pronounced camber 302 is located in proximity to a trailing edge and on a suction side of the blade, and an amplitude of the pronounced camber 302 at a location varies between about 0.7% to about 1.4% of a chord's length of a cross-section of the blade 204 at said location.
