1. An aerodynamic profile for a turbine blade, the profile being, when cold and in a non-coated state, substantially identical to a nominal profile determined by Cartesian coordinates X,Y,Z′

  • given in Table 1, in which the coordinate Z′

    is a quotient D/H, where D is a distance of a point under consideration from a first reference X,Y plane situated at a base of the nominal profile, and H is a height of said profile measured from said first reference plane that is an intersection of a stacking axis of a set of blades and an axisymmetric surface of a hub, out to a second reference plane that is an intersection of said stacking axis with an axisymmetric surface of a casing, the measurements D and H being taken radially relative to an axis of a turbine, and the coordinate X is measured in an axial direction of the turbine.
