Why the stagger angle is greatest at the tips in turbine but in normal propeller blade is the opposite (tips smallest AOA; root highest AOA)?
I have a question about turbines and propellers. Why is the stagger angle greatest at the tips in turbines, but in normal propeller blades, the tips have the smallest angle of attack and the root has the highest angle of attack?
The reason for this difference is because the tips of turbines experience higher speeds and are subject to higher levels of centrifugal force compared to the root. To compensate for this, the blades are angled to reduce the angle of attack at the tips.
