Flow resistance and heat transfer coefficients of the lamilloy with two kinds of film hole pitch were experimentally studied at the impinging Reynolds numbers ranging from 1×104 to 6×104. The detailed distributions of pressure coefficients on the target plate, impingement plate and pin-fins, local loss coefficients of jet, channel flow, effusion and the flow resistance coefficients of lamilloy were obtained by using a lot of pressure taps. The dense grids of the surfaces were generated and the pressure values of all the grid points were obtained by Kriging interpolation method based on the experimental data. Distributions of heat transfer coefficients on the target and the impingement surfaces ( The surface of the impingement plate in the impingement hole outlet surface) were tested by the transient liquid crystal technique. The coolant temperatures of both impingement hole inlet and the film hole outlet were measured by K type thermocouples. The results show that the pressure coefficients on the jet stagnation region increase firstly and then decrease along the radius direction from stagnation point. The pressure distributions on the two rows of pin-fins near the two film hole rows are significantly affected by the Reynolds numbers. The pressure coefficient values are nearly the same in the pin fin height direction which means the flow pattern near the pin fins of this two rows likes the crossflow past a circular cylinder at Re=3×104 and has the characteristics of reverse flow and flow around circular cylinder at Re=4×104. The loss coefficients of effusion are the biggest, those of channel flow are the second and those of impingement jet are the smallest. The loss coefficients of effusion of film hole increase at least 4 times and those of the impingement jet and the channel flow change slightly when the spacing of film hole decreases one half. The averaged heat transfer coefficient of target surface is higher than that of the impingement surface. This difference becomes obvious with the increase of Reynolds number. The differences of Nusselt number on the impingement surface and the target surface are 16% and 10% respectively under the two models at the Reynolds number of 6×104, indicating that the hole pitch has a weak influence on the averaged heat transfer coefficients. The second peak of heat transfer coefficients was found.

Heat Transfer Coefficients

A rig, simulating two adjacent cooling cavities on the trailing side of an airfoil, made up of two trapezoidal channels is tested. Eleven crossover holes on the partition wall between the two channels create the jets. Two exit flow arrangements are investigated—(a) jets, after interaction with the target surface, are turned toward the target channel exit axially and (b) jets exit from a row of racetrack-shaped slots along the target channel. Flow measurements are reported for individual holes and heat transfer coefficients on the eleven target walls downstream the jets are measured using liquid crystals under steady-state conditions. Smooth as well as ribbed target surfaces with four rib angles are tested. Correlations are developed for mass flow rate through each crossover hole, varying the number of crossover holes. Heat transfer coefficient variations along the target channel are reported for a range of 5000–50,000 local jet Reynolds numbers. Major conclusions are: (1) Correlations are developed to successfully predict the air flow rate through each crossover hole for partition walls with six to eleven crossover holes, based on the pressure drop across the holes, (2) impingement heat transfer coefficient correlates well with local jet Reynolds number for both exit flow arrangements, and (3) case of target channel flow exiting from the channel end, at higher jet Reynolds numbers, produce higher heat transfer coefficients than those in the case of flow exiting through a row of slots along the target channel opposite to the crossover holes.

An experimental study has been performed on single-phase heat transfer of de-ionized water over a bank of shrouded micro pin fins 243-μm long with hydraulic diameter of 99.5-μm. Heat transfer coefficients and Nusselt numbers have been obtained over effective heat fluxes ranging from 3.8 to 167 W/cm2 and Reynolds numbers from 14 to 112. The results were used to derive the Nusselt numbers and total thermal resistances. It has been found that endwalls effects are significant at low Reynolds numbers and diminish at higher Reynolds numbers.

Short pin fins are often used to increase the heat transfer to the coolant in the trailing edge of a turbine blade. Due primarily to limits of casting technology, it is not possible to manufacture pins of optimum length for heat transfer purposes in the trailing edge region. In many cases the pins are so short that they actually decrease the total heat transfer surface area compared to a plain wall. A heat transfer data base for these short pins is not available in the literature. Heat transfer coefficients on pin and endwall surfaces were measured for several staggered arrays of short pin fins. The measured Nusselt numbers when plotted versus Reynolds numbers were found to fall on a single curve for all surfaces tested. The heat transfer coefficients for the short pin fins (length to diameter ratios of 1/2 and 2) were found to be about a factor of two lower than data from the literature for longer pin arrays (length to diameter ratios of about 8).

Baseline Case

Abstract Array-jet impingement is typically used in gas turbine blade near-wall cooling, where high rates of heat dissipation is required. The accumulated crossflow mass flux results in significant reduction in jet effectiveness in the downstream rows, leading to reduced cooling performance. In this paper, a jet impingement system equipped with U-shaped ribs (hereafter referred as “diverter”) was used for diverting the crossflow away from the jets emanating from the nozzle plate. To this end, a baseline configuration of array-jet impingement onto smooth target surface is considered, where the normalized jet-to-jet spacing (x/dj = y/dj) was 6 and the normalized jet-to-target spacing (z/dj) was 2. Crossflow diverters with thickness t of 1.5875 mm and height h of 2dj (= z) were installed at a distance of 2dj from the respective jet centers. Detailed heat transfer coefficients have been calculated through transient liquid crystal experiments carried out over Reynolds numbers ranging from 3500 to 12,000. It has been observed that crossflow diverters protect the downstream jets from upstream jet deflection, thereby maximizing their stagnation cooling potential. An average of 15–30% enhancement in Nusselt number is obtained over the flow range tested. This benefit in heat transfer came at a cost of increased pumping power to maintain similar flow rate in the system. At a given pumping power, crossflow diverters yielded an enhancement of 9–15% in heat transfer compared with the baseline case.

Crossflow Velocity

Impinging jets are often employed within the leading edge of turbine blades and vanes to combat the tremendous heat loads incurred as the hot exhaust gases stagnate along the exterior of the airfoil. Relative to traditional cylindrical jets, racetrack shaped impinging jets have been shown to produce favorable cooling characteristics within the turbine airfoil. This investigation experimentally and numerically quantifies the cooling characteristics associated with a row of racetrack shaped jets impinging on a concave, cylindrical surface. Detailed Nusselt number distributions are obtained using both a transient liquid crystal technique and commercially available CFD software (Star CCM+ from CD-Adapco). Three geometrical jet inlet and exit conditions are experimentally investigated: a square edge, a partially filleted edge (r/dH,Jet = 0.25), and a fully filleted edge (r/dH,Jet = 0.667). Additionally, to investigate the effect of high crossflow velocities at the inlet of the jet, a portion of the flow supplied to the test apparatus radially bypasses the impingement section. Thus, the mass flow rate into the test section is varied to achieve the desired inlet crossflow conditions and jet Reynolds numbers. As a result, jet Reynolds numbers (ReJet) of 11500 and 23000 are investigated at supply duct Reynolds numbers (ReDuct) of 20000 and 30000. The results are compared to baseline cases where no mass bypasses the test section. Additionally, the relative jet – to – jet spacing (s/dH,Jet) is maintained at 8, the relative jet – to – target surface spacing (z/dH,Jet) is 4, the target surface curvature – to – jet hydraulic diameter (D/dH,Jet) is 5.33, and the relative thickness of the jet plate (t/dH,Jet) is 1.33. Measurements indicate that the addition of fillets at the edges of the jet orifice and the introduction of significant crossflow velocity at the inlet of the jet can significantly degrade the cooling characteristics on the leading edge of the turbine blade. The magnitude of such degradation generally increases with increasing fillet size and inlet crossflow velocity. The V2F model is adequate for predicting the flow field and target surface heat transfer in the absence of inlet crossflow; however, it is believed the turbulence within the jet is overpredicted by the CFD leading to elevated heat transfer coefficients (compared to the experimental results).

Rotating Channel

Experiments are preformed to investigate the effect of channel orientation in a rotating wedge-shaped cooling channel with lateral flow extraction. The test section bears the following characteristics. Staggered ribs are arranged in the inner wide region of the channel, while the pin-fins are located in the outer narrow region. The regionally averaged heat transfer coefficients are obtained to study the characteristics of heat transfer variations in this channel under rotating and non-rotating conditions. The experiments are conducted under four inlet Reynolds numbers (6100, 15000, 25100, 33000), five rotational speeds (0, 300, 500, 800, 1000rpm) and three channel orientations (90°, 135°, 180° angle from the channel symmetry plan to the rotating plan). The inlet rotation number ranges from zero to 0.62. Finally, the experimental data demonstrates that the streamwise heat transfer variations under rotating condition are strongly affected by channel orientation in this configuration. Furthermore, compared with the data under two channel orientation 90° and 180° (the direction of rotation is perpendicular and parallel to the channel symmetry plan), the heat transfer characteristics under 135° configuration, which is regarded as the typical trailing edge orientation, approaches to the 180° one in this rotating channel. An evident critical rotation number, after which the nature of heat transfer changes abruptly, exists under 180° and 135° configuration but not under 90° one.

Heat transfer coefficients were measured for a solution of surfactant drag-reducing additive in the entrance region of a uniformly heated horizontal cylindrical pipe with Reynolds numbers from 25,000 to 140,000 and temperatures from 30to70°C. In the absence of circumferential buoyancy effects, the measured Nusselt numbers were found to be in good agreement with theoretical results for laminar flow. Buoyancy effects, manifested as substantially higher Nusselt numbers, were seen in experiments carried out at high heat flux.

Cooling Passage

Systematic experiments are conducted to measure heat transfer enhancement and pressure loss characteristics on a square channel (simulating a gas turbine blade cooling passage) with two opposite surfaces roughened by 45 deg parallel ribs. Copper plates fitted with a silicone heater and instrumented with thermocouples are used to measure regionally averaged local heat transfer coefficients. Reynolds numbers studied in the channel range from 30,000 to 400,000. The rib height (e) to hydraulic diameter (D) ratio ranges from 0.1 to 0.18. The rib spacing (p) to height ratio (p/e) ranges from 5 to 10. Results show higher heat transfer coefficients at smaller values of p/e and larger values of e/D, though at the cost of higher friction losses. Results also indicate that the thermal performance of the ribbed channel falls with increasing Reynolds numbers. Correlations predicting Nusselt number (Nu) and friction factor (f¯) as a function of p/e, e/D, and Re are developed. Also developed are correlations for R and G (friction and heat transfer roughness functions, respectively) as a function of the roughness Reynolds number (e+), p/e, and e/D.

Pipe Expansion

An experimental and numerical study is reported on heat transfer in the separated flow region created by an abrupt circular pipe expansion. Heat transfer coefficients were measured along the pipe wall downstream from an expansion for three different expansion ratios of d/D = 0.195, 0.391, and 0.586 for Reynolds numbers ranging from 104 to 1.5 × 105. The results are compared with the numerical solutions obtained with the k ∼ ε turbulence model. In this computation a new finite difference scheme is developed which shows several advantages over the ordinary hybrid scheme. The study also covers the derivation of a new wall function model. Generally good agreement between the measured and the computed results is shown.
