Abstract
A rotor blade tip arrangement is provided in which winglets extend from the end of rotor blade aerofoil walls. These winglets incorporate passages which extend to coolant apertures or holes in order to present a coolant flow about the tip of the turbine rotor blade. The winglets define at least an open ended gutter channel in order to inhibit leakage flow across the tip arrangement from a pressure side P to a suction side S. The coolant flow facilitates cooling of the arrangement despite any heating caused by leakage flow across the arrangement.
