Summary:PURPOSE: A turbine bucket and a turbine are provided to improve the air dynamic efficiency and to reduce the thermal and the mechanical stress of a first stage airfoil. CONSTITUTION: An airfoil(36) has a nominal profile according to rectangular coordinates values of X, Y and Z. The Z value is a dimensionless value of zero or one and converted to a Z distance of inch unit by multiplying a height of the airfoil to the Z value. The X value and the Y value are distances of inch unit to define an airfoil profile section(38) from each distance Z when connecting with a smooth continuous arc. The profile section from the Z distance forms a complete airfoil shape by combining smoothly. Thereby, the thermal and the mechanical stress in a root cooling hole of a tailing edge is reduced.
