In an axial-flow turbine, at least one of front and rear side contact surfaces of shrouds (3a or 3b) of blades (1a or 1b) with respect to the turbine rotational direction is formed at certain angle with respect to a radial line connecting the rotor center and the contact surface. The shroud (3a) of the blade (1a) of a first kind is formed in a trapezoidal shape converging radially outward in cross section taken in a plane perpendicular to the turbine axial direction, and the shroud (3b) of the blade (1b) of a second kind is formed in an inverted trapezoidal shape converging radially inward in the cross section. Further, half of an angle (2a) between the front and rear side contact surfaces of the shrouds (3a or 3b) is made smaller than a static frictional angle of the contact surface. Since the shroud contact surfaces of two adjacent blades can be kept in pressure contact with each other under all operating conditions, a large dynamic stress reduction and superior damping properties can be obtained without producing excessive initial stresses at the blade airfoil and blade dovetail attachment portion.

Dans une turbine axiale, au moins l'une des surfaces de contact des chapeaux (3a ou 3b) des ailettes (3a ou 3b) avant ou arrière par rapport au sens de rotation de la turbine forme un certain angle par rapport à une ligne radiale reliant l'axe du rotor et ladite surface de contact. Le chapeau (3a) de l'ailette (1a) appartient à un premier type de forme trapézoïdale à flancs convergeant vers l'extérieur de la turbine lorsque vu en section prise perpendiculairement à l'axe de la turbine, et le chapeau (3b) de l'ailette (1b) appartient à un second type de forme trapézoïdale à flancs convergeant vers l'intérieur de la turbine. De plus, le demi-angle de l'angle (2a) entre les surfaces de contact avant et arrière des chapeaux (3a ou 3b) est réduite à une valeur inférieure à l'angle de frottement statique desdites surfaces. Comme les surfaces de contact des chapeaux de deux ailettes adjacentes peuvent être maintenues en appui serré l'une sur l'autre dans toutes les conditions de fonctionnement, on obtient une grande réduction des contraintes dynamiques et un amortissement supérieur sans engendrer des contraintes initiales excessives en périphérie des ailettes et dans sa racine en queue d'aronde.
