Abstract

An airfoil for a gas turbine engine comprises at least three successive sections defined between a root and a tip. A first decrease of maximum thickness-to-chord ratios defined by a difference between a maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at the root and a maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at a first spanwise position, a second decrease of the maximum thickness-to-chord ratios defined by a difference between the maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at the first spanwise position and a maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at a second spanwise position, a third decrease of the maximum thickness-to-chord ratios defined by a difference between the maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at the second spanwise position and a maximum thickness-to-chord ratio at the tip, the second decrease being greater than the corresponding first and third decreases.
