dc.description.abstract	Theoretical assessments of the influence of trailing-edge thickness on turbine blade loss coefficients are reviewed and compared with the results of a cascade tunnel investigation. Tests on a single-stage turbine indicate that efficiency is much more sensitive to stator blade trailing-edge thickness than simple estimates would indicate, but rotor blade thickness effects on efficiency are in line with simple prediction.	en_US
