Total-pressure-loss coefficients, flow discharge coefficients, and friction factors were determined experimentally for the various area and geometry-changes and flow passages within an air-cooled turbine vane. The results are compared with those of others obtained on similar configurations, both actual and large models, of vane passages. The supply and exit air pressures were controlled and varied. The investigation was conducted with essentially ambient-temperature air and without external flow of air over the vane.
