Abstract
A turbine bucket including an airfoil, the airfoil having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table 1 as contained herein wherein the Z values are non-dimensional values from approximately 0 to 1 convertible to Z distances in inches by multiplying the Z values by a height of the airfoil in inches, and wherein X and Y are distances in inches which, when connected by substantially smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z, the profile sections at the Z distances being joined substantially smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.
