2. 1. Experimental Studies of Effusion Cooling

   Author : Bernhard Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; laser-Doppler anemometry; infrared thermography; film cooling; flow visualization; full coverage film cooling; jet in crossflow; effusion cooling;

   Abstract : The desire to increase the efficiency of jet engines, has led to an increase in the temperature in the combustion chambers and in the turbine stage. There is thus an interest in efficient cooling methods. Film cooling and effusion cooling are often used where there is a great heat load. READ MORE

4. 2. On Film Cooling of Turbine Guide Vanes : From Experiments and CFD-Simulations to Correlation Development

   Author : Hossein Nadali Najafabadi; Matts Karlsson; Esa Utriainen; Mats Kinell; Valery Chernoray; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Film Cooling; Gas Turbine; Correlation; CFD; Cylindrical holes; Fan-shaped Holes;

   Abstract : To achieve high thermal efficiency in modern gas turbines, the turbine-inlet temperature has to be increased. In response to such requisites and to prevent thermal failure of the components exposed to hot gas streams, the use of different cooling techniques, including film cooling, is essential. READ MORE

5. 3. Aerodynamic Investigation of Leading Edge Contouring and External Cooling on a Transonic Turbine Vane

   Author : Ranjan Saha; Torsten Fransson; Jens Fridh; Tony Arts; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas turbine; aerodynamics; secondary flow; external cooling; trailing edge cooling; film cooling; aerodynamic loss; high pressure turbine; nozzle guide vane; Aerospace Engineering; Flyg- och rymdteknik; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

   Abstract : Efficiency improvement in turbomachines is an important aspect in reducing the use of fossil-based fuel and thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions in order to achieve a sustainable future. Gas turbines are mainly fossil-based turbomachines powering aviation and land-based power plants. READ MORE

6. 4. CFD Simulations for Film Cooling : Reduced Models at Engine Like Conditions

   Author : Andreas Bradley; Matts Karlsson; Karl Storck; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In gas turbines some parts are exposed to combustion gases with temperatures well above the melting temperature of the material. Therefore, various cooling techniques are utilized in order to protect the parts exposed to these hot gases. One such technique, film cooling, is a common and well established way to protect the exposed parts. READ MORE

7. 5. Turbulence Modelling of Flows Related to Wall-Cooling Applications

   Author : Stefan Jansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; low-Reynolds number models; second-order-moment closures; turbulent heat transfer; two-equation models; film-cooling; near-wall models; turbulence modelling;

   Abstract : Engineering flows are generally characterised by complex strain field and turbulence structure arising from a combination of shear, curvature, separation and recirculation etc. Under such flow conditions, transport by turbulent velocity fluctuations can make a significant contribution to the transport of momentum, heat and mass.
