The cooling performances for the cylindrical film-cooling hole with divided downstream crescent-shaped blocks were numerically investigated in present study. Four configurations with divided crescent-shaped block, i.e. linear, 30° convergence, 30° expansion, and 30° curved expansion, were studied at typical flow conditions. The successive crescent-shaped block case and the no block case were also solved in comparison. The temperature profiles, the local and lateral averaged cooling effectiveness at blowing ratios of 0.5 to 1.5 were obtained. As compared with the successive block case, the lateral coolant coverage were widened by using the divided block, and thus the lateral averaged cooling effectiveness were improved, especially at higher blowing ratios. Comparatively, the cylindrical hole with 30° expansion crescent-shaped block exhibited highest cooling performance.
