Abstract
Aerodynamically mistuned airfoils for unsteady loss reductions are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a disk, a first airfoil coupled to the disk, the first airfoil having a first geometry, and a second airfoil coupled to the disk adjacent to the first airfoil, the second airfoil having a second geometry different than the first geometry, the first airfoil and the second airfoil produce non-uniform wake passing times during operation of the disk.
