Rotor blade for a turbomachine

Abstract

A rotor blade (14) having an airfoil (18) and beam construction for a tip shroud (30) is disclosed. Various construction details are developed for providing a transition zone (34) that extend from the sides (26,24) of the airfoil (18) to limit stesses at shroud-airfoil interface, at the disk-root interface and to extend the creep life of the blade while providing a flow path surface of the shroud (30).
