Numerical simulation on impingement and film composite cooling of blade leading edge model for gas turbine

摘要

In this paper numerical simulation is performed to simulate the impingement and film composite cooling on blade leading edge region. The relative performances of turbulence models are compared with available experimental data, and the results show that SST k-omega model is the best one based on simulation accuracy. Then the SST k-omega model is adopted for the simulation. The grid independence study is also carried out by using the Richardson extrapolation method. A single array of circle jets and three rows of film holes are arranged to investigate the impingement and film composite cooling. Five different blowing ratios and five different film hole spanwise angles are studied in detail. The results indicate that the heat transfer coefficient on the internal surface of turbine blade leading edge increases with the blowing ratio, and slightly changes with film hole spanwise angle. And the external film cooling effectiveness distribution would vary rapidly with the blowing ratio and the film hole spanwise angle. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
