Abstract: An insertion mechanism for a linear cascade allowing the displacement of one measurement airfoil to conduct transient heat transfer experiments is introduced. A basic feature of the system is ...

Abstract: Results have been presented on the heat transfer characteristics of the film cooled endwall (platform) of a turbine nozzle guide vane in an annular cascade at engine representative conditions ...

Abstract: This paper reports on the influence of Coriolis-induced secondary flow and centripetal buoyancy on the heat transfer within typical turbine rotor blade cooling passages. The experimental results ...

Abstract: Heat transfer and aerodynamic measurements have been made on the endwalls of an annular cascade of turbine nozzle guide vanes in the presence of film cooling. The results indicate that high ...

Abstract: Detailed heat transfer and aerodynamic measurements have been made on an annular cascade of highly loaded nozzle guide vanes. The tests were carried out in an Isentropic Light Piston test ...

Abstract: Experimental determination of heat transfer rates to gas turbine blading plays an important part in the improvement of both the validation of existing design methods and the development of ...

Abstract: Results of heat transfer measurements on a typical turbine blade and a vane in a linear cascade have been obtained using the naphthalene sublimation technique. The tests on the vane were ...

Abstract: This paper presents a selection of experimental results that examines the influence of orthogonal-mode rotation on local and mean heat transfer in a triangular-sectioned duct with potential ...

Abstract: A series of experiments have been performed to demonstrate the application of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) to turbomachinery flows. The tests were performed at transonic speeds on a fully ...
