## Abstract

A blade for a blade row of a turbomachine having wired sections, in particular a blade of a compressor rotor blade, as well as a method for wiring sections of such a blade, is disclosed. Sections of a blade are wired in such a way that a first central component of a second section is selected according to at least one central component of a first section.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for forming a blade (1) for a blade row of a turbomachine, comprising:
selecting a first central component (ΘCG(i+1)) of a second section ((i+1)) of the blade according to at least one central component (ΘCG(i), xCG(i), rCG(i)) of a first section ((i)) of the blade;
wherein the first central component (ΘCG(i+1)) of the second section ((i+1)) is selected as a first central component in a peripheral direction essentially according to:

where:
(i) is a variable of the first section;
(i+1) is a variable of the second section;
ΘCG is a central component of a section in the peripheral direction;
xCG is a central component of a section in an axial direction;
rCG is a central component of a section in a radial direction;
β is a graduated angle of a section; and
Θlean is a peripheral incline; and
forming the blade by wiring the first section and the second section of the blade.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein a central peripheral position (ΘCG(i+1)) for all sections ((i+1)) is selected according to
ΘCG(i+1)=ΘCG(l)+Arctan└A·(xCG(i+1)−xCG(i))·tan B┘+C
for which a difference (rCG(I+1)−rCG(l)) between the central component thereof and a central component in the radial direction of a radially inward channel base is at least 35% of a channel height of the blade row.
