The parameter quantifies relative amount of ”expansion” in
rotor. Thus, equation 7.7 relates blade angles to the relative
amount of expansion. Aircraft turbine designs are typically
50% degree of reaction designs.

Current aircraft practice (according
to C.R.S):

Aircraft practice => relatively high
values on flow and stage loading
coefficients limit efficiencies
