Abstract: Serpentine channels are a common feature seen in heat ex-changer geometries. For example, they are present in midchord regions of gas turbine blades to prevent material failure at high turbine inlet temperatures. Due to ...

Abstract: Arrays of staggered pin fins are a typical geometry found in the trailing edge region of modern airfoils. If coolant is supplied by bleeding from the mid-section of the airfoil instead of provided through the root, the ...
