Cooling Turbine Blades using Exciting Boundary Layer
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The present study is concerned with the effect of exciting boundary layer on cooling process in a gas-turbine blades. The cooling process is numerically investigated. Observations show cooling the first row of moving or stable blades leads to increase their life-time. Results show that minimum temperature in cooling line with exciting boundary layer is lower than without exciting. Using block in cooling line of turbines' blade causes flow pattern and stability in boundary layer changed that causes increase in heat transfer coefficient. Results show at the location of block, temperature of turbines' blade is significantly decreased. The k-ε turbulence model is used. Keywords—Cooling, Exciting Boundary Layer, Heat Transfer, Turbine Blade.

An Innovation in Film Cooling of the Gas Turbine Blades Applying an Upstream Jet
A new design concept is introduced to control the near-wall integration between the hot-gas boundary layer and the cooling jets in order to enhance the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness of the gas turbine blades. In this new approach, another film cooling port, having a very low blowing ratio, which prevents formation of the counter-rotating vortex pare, is applied just upstream of the main ...

Cooling characteristics are given in terms of the variation of average blade temperature at mid-span with cooling-flow rate, Reynolds number, gas/cooling-air absolute temperature ratio, and, for the rotor, gas-stream incidence. Chordwise and spanwise variations of blade temperature are also presented. Measured pressure-drop characteristics indicate that in a gas-turbine engine, with the cooling...

متن کاملSimulation of Mist Film Cooling on Rotating Gas Turbine Blades
Film cooling technique has been successfully applied to gas turbine blades to prevent it from the hot flue gas. However, a continuous demand of increasing the turbine inlet temperature to raise the efficiency of the turbine requires continuous improvement in film cooling effectiveness. The concept of injecting mist (tiny water droplets) into the cooling fluid has been proven under laboratory co...
