The goal of this study is to quantify the impact of rotor–stator interaction on surface heat
transfer of film cooled turbine blades. In Section I, a steady-state injection model of the film …

Cautery is a process to coagulate tissues and seal blood vessels using heat. In this study,
finite element modeling (FEM) was performed to analyze temperature distribution in …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has recently been used for the simulation of the
aerothermodynamics of film cooling. The direct calculation of a single cooling hole requires …

An existing three-dimensional Navier–Stokes code (Arnone et al., 1991), modified to include
film cooling considerations (Garg and Gaugler, 1994), has been used to study the effect of …

A three-dimensional Navier–Stokes code has been used to compute the heat transfer
coefficient on a film-cooled, rotating turbine blade. The blade chosen is the ACE rotor with …

This paper describes the experimental approach utilized to perform experiments using a
fully cooled rotating turbine stage to obtain film effectiveness measurements. Significant …

The predictions from a three-dimensional (3-D) Navier-Stokes code have been compared to
the Nusselt number data obtained on a film-cooled, rotating turbine blade. The blade chosen …
