The present study investigates convective heat/mass transfer and flow characteristics inside a cooling passage of rotating gas-turbine blades. The rotating duct has staggered ribs with $70^{\circ}$ attack angle, which are attached on leading and trailing surfaces. Naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to determine detailed local heat transfer coefficients using the heat and mass transfer analogy. Additional numerical calculations are conducted to analyze the flow patterns in the cooling passage. The present experiments employ two-surface heating conditions in the rotating duct because the exposed surfaces to hot gas stream are pressure and suction side surfaces in the middle passages of an actual gas-turbine blade. Secondary flows are generated by Coriolis and centrifugal forces in the spanwise and streamwise directions. The ribs attached on the walls disturb the mainflow resulting in recirculation and secondary flows near the ribbed wall. The local heat transfer and flow patterns in the passage are changed significantly according to rib configurations and duct rotation speeds. Therefore, the geometry and arrangement of the ribs are important for the advantageous cooling performance. The experimental results show that the ribs enhance the heat transfer more than $70\%$ from that of the smooth duct. The duct rotation generates the heat transfer discrepancy between the leading and trailing walls due to the secondary flows induced by the Coriolis force. The overal heat transfer pattern on the leading and trailing walls for the first and second passes are depended on the rotating speed, but the local heat transfer trend is affected mainly by the rib arrangements.

Conjugate heat transfer analysis was performed to investigate the flow and cooling performance of the high pressure turbine nozzle of gas turbine engine. The CHT code was verified by comparison between CFD results and experimental results of C3X vane. The combination of k-${\omega}$ based SST turbulence model and transition model was used to solve the flow and thermal field of the fluid zone and the material property of CMSX-4 was applied to the solid zone. The turbine nozzle has two internal cooling channels and each channel has a complex cooling configurations, such as the film cooling, jet impingement, pedestal and rib turbulator. The parabolic temperature profile was given to the inlet condition of the nozzle to simulate the combustor exit condition. The flow characteristics were analyzed by comparing with uncooled nozzle vane. The Mach number around the vane increased due to the increase of coolant mass flow flowed in the main flow passage. The maximum cooling effectiveness (91 %) at the vane surface is located in the middle of pressure side which is effected by the film cooling and the rib turbulrator. The region of the minimum cooling effectiveness (44.8 %) was positioned at the leading edge. And the results show that the TBC layer increases the average cooling effectiveness up to 18 %.

본 연구에서는 가스터빈 블레이드의 필름 냉각에서 45도 리브가 있는 냉각채널의 필름 홀 위치가 블레이드의 표면냉각 성능에 미치는 영향을 전산유체해석 기법을 통하여 분석하였다. 또한 냉각채널의 리브 유무의 영향을 동일 분사율에 대해서 고찰하였다. 수치해석 도메인은 3차원으로 구성하였고 상용코드(Fluent ver. 17.0)를 사용하여 정상상태 조건 하에서 수치해석을 진행하였다. 그 결과를 바탕으로 블레이드 표면에서의 냉각효율, 유속, 유선, 압력 계수를 비교 분석하였고 홀 위치의 변화가 리브 구조에 의해 유발되는 이차 유동의 토출에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 수치해석 결과로부터 리브가 설치되어 있는 경우 냉각채널의 내부유동은 상부에서 반시계 방향 및 하부에서 시계 방향의 와류쌍을 형성하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 리브가 있는 채널의 경우 리브에 의하여 발생한 와류유동이 홀 출구 부근에서 더 높은 압력 차이를 유발하여 리브가 없는 경우보다 최소 12% 이상의 높은 냉각 효율을 나타냈다. 또한 리브가 있는 채널 중에서 홀이 좌측에 위치한 경우(Rib-Left) 리브에 의하여 발생한 이차 유동이 홀 부근의 벽면에 부딪혀 홀 경사각 방향으로의 유동이 형성되는 것을 확인하였다. 블레이드 표면으로 토출된 냉각기체가 주 유동 경계층 내부에서 머무는 영역이 다른 케이스에 비하여 넓기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 또한 이 경우 홀 출구 부근에서 가장 큰 압력 계수 차이를 나타내었고 이로 인하여 냉각기체의 토출이 촉진되어 냉각효율이 다소 증가하였다.

In this paper, recent research trend on heat transfer in impinging jet is reviewed. We focused on submerged jet that air issued into air or liquid issued into liquid. To control and enhance the heat transfer in single jet, researchers have performed a lot of experiments by considering the nozzle geometry, impinging surface and active method such as jet vibration, secondary injection and suction flow. The studies on multiple jet have been mainly focused on finding out the optimum condition and on investigating many different factors concerned with application condition (crossflow, rotation and geometry etc.) and combined techniques (rib turbulator, pin fin, dimple and effusion hole etc.). All most experiments showed the detailed heat transfer data by using liquid crystal method, infrared camera technique and naphthalene sublimation method. Many numerical calculations have been performed to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics in laminar jet region. Various turbulence models such as $k-\varepsilon-\bar{\nu^2}$, modified $k-\varepsilon-f_{\mu}$ were applied to the calculation for turbulent jet and the predicted results showed a good agreement with the experimental data. Although a lot of studies on impinging jet have performed consistently up to recently, further studies are still required to understand the flow and heat transfer characteristics more accurately, and to give a guideline for optimum impinging jet design in various applications.
