Abstract

A stator that has vanes extending between a first end and a second end along a span and from a leading edge to a trailing edge along a chord length, the vanes having a first end portion extending from the first end to about 30% of the span to a first location, a chord ratio of the chord length at the first end to the chord length at the first location greater than or equal to 1.1, a throat ratio of a width of a throat between two adjacent vanes at the first location to a width of the throat at the first end is greater than or equal to 1.3, a sweep angle difference between a maximum sweep angle of the leading edge along the first end portion and a minimum sweep angle of the leading edge along the first end portion is at least 15 degrees.
