Local Mass and Heat Transfer on a Turbine Blade Tip

Turbine Blade Tip Cooling and Heat Transfer

ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Behind every success, there is inspiration or support of at least one person. In my case, it was a group of people including my mentor, my family, and my friends. First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Srinath Ekkad for his guidance, wisdom, and financial support. I do not think many advisors would go to the lab to help his student running an experiment. Whenever I had any ...

A Numerical Analysis of Heat Transfer and Effectiveness on Film Cooled Turbine Blade Tip Models

Since its founding, NASA has been dedicated to the advancement of aeronautics and space science. The NASA Scientific and Technical Information (STI) Program Office plays a key part in helping NASA maintain this important role. The NASA STI Program Office is operated by Langley Research Center, the Lead Center for NASA's scientific and technical information. The NASA STI Program Office provides ...

Effect of Inlet Geometry on the Turbine Blade Tip Region Heat Transfer Coefficient and Effectiveness

An experimental investigation of the local film cooling effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient downstream of a row of elongated holes in a simulated axial turbine blade tip is presented. Film cooling is needed to protect the turbine blade tip region from high heat transfer rates, especially when cooling by convection is insufficient to keep the temperature distribution of the blade within ...

Heat Transfer and Flow on the Blade Tip of a Gas Turbine Equipped With a Mean-Camberline Strip

Turbine Blade Cascade Heat Transfer Analysis Using CFD –A Review

Heat transfer analysis on a turbine blade cascade using CFD is reviewed in this paper based upon the literature available. The flow conditions across turbine blades are complex because of three dimensional configuration of the blade. Axial flow turbine blade design is hectic because understanding of control flows, prediction and analysis is a tedious task. The flow behaviour in a turbine blade ...
