Abstract
A turbine blade includes cooling passages formed inside the blade and extending in a blade height direction, blade surfaces on a suction side and a pressure side being covered with thermal barrier coating, a design point on a suction side being set on the blade surface on the suction side of each blade section perpendicular to the blade height direction within a range from a position on a back side of and including a throat position, and to a position in front of and not including a tailing end of a final cooling passage. Thickness distribution of the thermal barrier coating on the suction side of each blade section is configured such that a thickness of the thermal barrier coating is uniform from a blade leading edge to the design point and gradually reduces from the design point toward the back side up to the blade trailing edge.
