Gas turbine engine airfoil

Abstract:

A compressor airfoil of a turbine engine includes pressure and suction sides that extend in a radial direction from a 0% span position to a 100% span position. The airfoil has a relationship between leading edge sweep angle and span position defined by a curve in which the leading edge sweep angle is positive at 0% span and crosses to a negative leading edge sweep angle at a span position less than 80% span. A negative sweep angle is in the forward direction. A positive sweep angle is in the rearward direction. The airfoil has a relationship between trailing edge sweep angle and span position defined by a curve in which the trailing edge sweep angle is negative at 0% span and changes less than 10.degree. from 0% span to 90% span.
