Studies of Gas Turbine Heat Transfer: Airfoil Surface and End-Wall.

Abstract

The annual report documents progress at the University of Minnesota Heat Transfer Laboratory on the topic of heat transfer from gas turbine airfoil and end-wall surface. Subtopics are: Curvature effects, End-wall heat transfer and Near-end-wall heat transfer. Curvature effects on turbulent transport are shown for a smooth convex wall and for single-row film-cooled convex and concave walls. End-wall mass (heat) transfer coefficient contours show the horseshoe vortex, the passage vortex and an inner vortex.
