A Three-Dimensional Coupled Internal/External Simulation of a Film-Cooled Turbine Vane

Abstract: A three-dimensional Navier-Stokes simulation has been performed for a realistic film-cooled turbine vane using the LeRC-HT code. The simulation includes the flow regions inside the coolant plena and film cooling holes in addition to the external flow. The vane is the subject of an upcoming NASA Lewis Research Center experiment and has both circular cross-section and shaped film cooling holes. This complex geometry is modeled using a multi-block grid which accurately discretizes the actual vane geometry includi… Show more

“…Complex 3-D numerical investigations of a real film-cooled blade were presented by Garg and Rigby [7] with a focus on the hole exit regions and the heat transfer. Heidmann et al [8] computed the heat transfer for a realistic turbine vane with 12 rows of holes with shaped holes and the plena. Garg [9] presented results for a full rotating blade with 172 film holes, resolving the film hole exits, but not the hole pipes and plena.…”

“…Divo et al [9,13] and Heidmann et al [14,15] report on the use of the TFFB method for the computation of the conjugate heat transfer effects on a realistic film-cooled turbine blade. The method uses an explicit FVM code and a Boundary Element Method (BEM) for the computation of the heat transfer in the solid.…”
