The present paper has investigated the effects of fin on the flow and heat/mass transfer characteristics for the impingement/effusion cooling with crossflow. The fins of circular or rectangular shape are installed between two perforated plates and the crossflow passes between these two plates. The blowing ratio is changed from 0.5 to 1.5 for a fixed jet Reynolds number of 10,000. A naphthalene sublimation method is used to obtain the local heat/mass transfer coefficients on the effusion plate. A numerical calculation is also performed to investigate the flow characteristics. Flow and heat/mass transfer characteristics are changed significantly due to installation of fins. In the injection region, wall jet spreads more widely than the case without fins because fin prevents the wall jet from being swept away by the crossflow. In the effusion region, higher heat/mass transfer coefficient is obtained due to the flow disturbance and acceleration by the fin. As the blowing ratio increases, the effects of fin against the crossflow become more significant and then the higher average heat/mass transfer coefficients are obtained. Especially, the cases with rectangular fins have about 40%∼45% enhancement at the high blowing ratio of M = 1.5. However, the increase of blockage effect gives more pressure loss in the channel.

The present study focuses on local heat/mass transfer characteristics on the near-tip region of a rotating blade. To investigate the local heat/mass transfer on the near-tip surface of the rotating turbine blade, detailed measurements of time-averaged mass transfer coefficients on the blade surfaces were conducted using a naphthalene sublimation technique. A low speed wind tunnel with a single stage annular turbine cascade was used. The turbine stage is composed of sixteen guide plates and blades with spacing of 34 mm, and the chord length of the blade is 150 mm. The mean tip clearance is about 2.5% of the blade chord. The tested Reynolds number based on inlet flow velocity and blade chord is 1.5×105 and the rotational speed of blade is 255.8 rpm for the design condition. The result at the design condition was compared with the results for the stationary blade to clarify the rotational effect, and the effects of incoming flow incidence angle were examined for incidence angles ranging from −15 to +7deg. The off-design test condition is obtained by changing the rotational speed maintaining a fixed incoming flow velocity. Complex heat transfer characteristics are observed on the blade surface due to the complicated flow patterns, such as flow acceleration, laminarization, transition, separation bubble and tip leakage flow. The blade rotation causes an increase of the incoming flow turbulence intensity and a reduction of the tip gap flow. At off-design conditions, the heat transfer on the turbine rotor changes significantly due to the flow acceleration/deceleration and the incoming flow angle variation.

This study investigates the local heat/mass transfer characteristics on the stationary shroud with blade tip clearances for flat tip geometry. A large scale linear cascade is used and the relative motion between the blade and shroud is neglected in this study. A naphthalene sublimation method is employed to determine the detailed local heat/mass transfer coefficients on the shroud surface. The geometry of blade tip used in this study is flat and the tip clearance varies from 0.66% to 2.85% of the blade chord length. The flow enters the gap between the blade tip and shroud at the pressure side due to the pressure difference. Therefore, the heat/mass transfer characteristics on the shroud are changed significantly from those for no tip clearance. High heat/mass transfer region is observed along the pressure side of blade due to the entrance effect and the acceleration of the tip gap flow. Complex heat transfer patterns on the shroud are observed in the region where the blade tip and shroud are overlapped due to the flow separation and reattachment. Then, the heat/mass transfer coefficients on the shroud increase along the suction side of blade because tip leakage vortices are generated with interacting the main flow. The experimental results show that the heat/mass transfer characteristics are changed significantly with the gap distance between the tip of turbine blade and the shroud. However, the turbulence intensity of incoming flow has little influence on the heat/mass transfer coefficients on the shroud with tip clearance.
