ABSTRACT:
A turbine wheel for a low-speed, single-stage turbine is constructed with a large number of blades which extend radially outward in planes normal to the axis of rotation of the wheel, each blade having a relatively sharp leading edge and a thicker body portion which merges smoothly with the leading edge. In the preferred construction each blade in transverse cross-section is diamond shaped and is arranged with two of its opposite sharp edges forming the leading and trailing edges of the blade.
