Abstract

The first stage nozzles have airfoil profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth Table I. The X and Y values are in inches and the Z value is in inches along the nozzle stacking axis coincident with a turbine radius. The X and Y distances may be scalable as a function of the same constant or number to provide a scaled up or scaled down airfoil section for the nozzle. The nominal airfoil given by the X, Y and Z distances lies within an envelope of±0.160 inches.
