Abstract

A gas turbine blade having a casted metal airfoil, the airfoil has a main wall defining at least one interior cavity, having a first side wall and a second side wall, which are coupled to each other at a leading edge and a trailing edge, extending in a radial direction from a blade root to a blade tip and defining a radial span from 0% at the blade root to 100% at the blade tip. The main airfoil has a radial span dependent chord length defined by a straight line connecting the leading edge and the trailing edge as well as a radial span dependent solidity ratio of metal area to total cross-sectional area. Solidity ratios in a machined zone of the airfoil from 80% to 85% of span are below 35%, in particular all solidity ratios in the zone.
