Abstract
Flow deflection in turbomachines is established by stator and rotor blades with prescribed geometry that includes inlet and exit camber angles, stagger angle, camberline, and thickness distribution. The blade geometry is adjusted to the stage velocity diagram which is designed for specific turbine or compressor flow applications. Simple blade design methods are available in the open literature (see References).
