In order to continue increasing the efficiency of gas turbines, an important effort is made on the thermal management of the turbine stage. In particular, understanding and accurately estimating the thermal loads in a vane passage is of primary interest to engine designers looking to optimize the cooling requirements and ensure the integrity of the components. This paper focuses on the measurement of endwall heat transfer in a vane passage with a three-dimensional (3D) airfoil shape and cylindrical endwalls. It also presents a comparison with predictions performed using an in-house developed Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solver featuring a specific treatment of the numerical smoothing using a flow adaptive scheme. The measurements have been performed in a steady state axial turbine facility on a novel platform developed for heat transfer measurements and integrated to the nozzle guide vane (NGV) row of the turbine. A quasi-isothermal boundary condition is used to obtain both the heat transfer coefficient and the adiabatic wall temperature within a single measurement day. The surface temperature is measured using infrared thermography through small view ports. The infrared camera is mounted on a robot arm with six degrees of freedom to provide high resolution surface temperature and a full coverage of the vane passage. The paper presents results from experiments with two different flow conditions obtained by varying the mass flow through the turbine: measurements at the design point (ReCax=7.2×105) and at a reduced mass flow rate (ReCax=5.2×105). The heat transfer quantities, namely the heat transfer coefficient and the adiabatic wall temperature, are derived from measurements at 14 different isothermal temperatures. The experimental data are supplemented with numerical predictions that are deduced from a set of adiabatic and diabatic simulations. In addition, the predicted flow field in the passage is used to highlight the link between the heat transfer patterns measured and the vortical structures present in the passage.

Abstract The aeroengine turbine cavity with pre-swirl structure makes the turbine component obtain better cooling effect, but the complex design of inlet and outlet makes it difficult to determine the heat transfer reference temperature of turbine disk. For the pre-swirl structure with two air intakes, the driving temperature difference of heat transfer between disk and cooling air cannot be determined either in theory or in test, which is usually called three-temperature problem. In this paper, the three-temperature problem of a rotating cavity with two cross inlets are studied by means of experiment and numerical simulation. By substituting the adiabatic wall temperature for the inlet temperature and summarizing its variation law, the problem of selecting the reference temperature of the multi-inlet cavity can be solved. The results show that the distribution of the adiabatic wall temperature is divided into the high jet area and the low inflow area, which are mainly affected by the turbulence parameters λT, the rotating Reynolds number Reω, the high inlet temperature Tf,H* and the low radius inlet temperature Tf,L* of the inflow, while the partition position rd can be considered only related to the turbulence parameters λT and the rotating Reynolds number Reω of the inflow. In this paper, based on the analysis of the numerical simulation results, the calculation formulas of the partition position rd and the adiabatic wall temperature distribution are obtained. The results show that the method of experiment combined with adiabatic wall temperature zone simulation can effectively solve the three-temperature problem of rotating cavity.

Recent work, Van Treuren et al. (1993), has shown the transient method of measuring heat transfer under an array of impinging jets allows the determination of local values of adiabatic wall temperature and heat transfer coefficient over the complete surface of the target plate. Using this technique, an inline array of impinging jets has been tested over a range of average jet Reynolds numbers (10,000–40,000) and for three channel height to jet hole diameter ratios (1, 2, and 4). The array is confined on three sides and spent flow is allowed to exit in one direction. Local values are averaged and compared with previously published data in related geometries. The current data for a staggered array is compared to those from an inline array with the same hole diameter and pitch for an average jet Reynolds number of 10,000 and channel height to diameter ratio of one. A comparison is made between intensity and hue techniques for measuring stagnation point and local distributions of heat transfer. The influence of the temperature of the impingement plate through which the coolant gas flows on the target plate heat transfer has been quantified.

Numerical investigation (A.I.Leontiev, V.G.Lushchik, A.E.Jakubenko «PARADOXES OF HEAT TRANSFER ON A PERMEABLE WALL») shows that adiabatic wall temperature in the region of the gas film may be lower than the injected gas (coolant) temperature. It occurs in case of foreign light-gas injection and it does not occur in case of uniform gas injection under the same conditions. This paper is devoted to the experimental investigation of this conclusion. Experimental researches have been conducted in the low flow-rate supersonic wind tunnel (Mach number of 3) located in the Institute of Mechanics of the Moscow State University. Argon was used as a primary stream, helium and argon as coolant. The coolant was blown in through the porous permeable part of a model and injected into the supersonic boundary layer. The surface temperature of the model was gained with use of the infrared scanning device ThermaCAM SC 3000. As a result following data have been obtained. It is shown in particular that the adiabatic wall temperature in the region of the gas film may be lower than the injected gas (coolant) temperature. This effect does not take place in case of uniform (air-air, argon-argon etc.) gas injection, for this effect is especially essential for gas mixtures with low values of the Prandtl number.

The paper describes measurements of adiabatic wall temperature downstream of discrete hole injection slots for a range of parameters relevant to gas turbine practice. The influence of open-area-ratio, slot-lip-length and slot-lip-thickness is determined for tangential holes and a range of mass velocity ratios, 0.3 < m < 2.0, and downstream distances up to 40 equivalent slot heights; similar measurements are reported downstream of three-dimensional splash cooling geometries. In all, 13 different three-dimensional configurations are investigated and permit conclusions to be drawn as to the significance of the parameters investigated. The measurements clearly demonstrate the need for a thin and long slot lip and for a large value of open area ratio.

Predicting the characteristics of a transitional boundary layer remains an open challenge in supersonic flow fields. An experimental campaign to understand the effects of a single roughness element on a supersonic laminar boundary layer was designed. Two Mach numbers were tested, 1.6 and 2.3, including two roughness heights, 0.1 mm and 1 mm, over a flat plate. Steady and unsteady wall temperature and pressure levels were recorded to interpret the influence of the wake of the roughness. Heat flux and adiabatic wall temperature trends, temperature and pressure fluctuations RMS trends and time evolution of spectral content were reported. The initial wall temperature was varied during the wall temperature measurements and the resulting steady and unsteady effects on the roughness wake were investigated.
