An airfoil for a combustion turbine comprising a leading edge, a trailing edge, and an airfoil portion defined therebetween is provided. The airfoil has an axial chord length. The airfoil portion has an accelerating flow section and a decelerating flow section. The accelerating flow section is formed such that a gas flow continues to accelerate for over more than one half of the axial chord length such that a flow boundary layer remains substantially attached along the decelerating section of the airfoil.
