Abstract: Flow in the internal threepass serpentine rib turbulated passages of an advanced high pressure rotor blade is simulated on a 1:1 scale in the laboratory. Tests to measure the effect of rotation on the Nusselt number are ...

Abstract: This paper experimentally investigates the effect of rotation on heat transfer in typical turbine blade serpentine coolant passage with ribbed walls at low Mach numbers. To achieve the low Mach number (around 0.01) condition, ...

Abstract: Researchers in gas turbine field take great interest in the cooling performance on the firststage vane because of the complex flow characteristics and intensive heat load that comes from the exit of the combustion chamber. ...

Abstract: Turbine vane endwalls are highly susceptible to intensive heat load due to their large exposed area and complex flow field especially for the first stage of the vane. Therefore, a suitable film cooling design that properly ...

Abstract: In recent years, numerical models have shown significant improvement in their ability to predict tropical cyclone motion. This has brought about a decline in the development, improvement, and use of models that treat ...

Abstract: The National Centers for Environmental Prediction regional spectral model and mesoscale spectral model (NCEP RSM/MSM) use a spectral computation on perturbation. The perturbation is defined as a deviation between RSM/MSM ...

Abstract: This paper experimentally investigates the effect of rotation on heat transfer in a typical turbine blade, three-pass, serpentine coolant channel with discrete ribbed walls at high Reynolds numbers. To achieve the high ...
