An overview of the science and technology involved in today's turbine engines is presented
with specific focus on the critical rotational-to-stationary interfaces comprising axial turbine …

A novel turbine film-cooling hole shape has been conceived and designed at NASA Glenn
Research Center. This “antivortex” design is unique in that it requires only easily machinable …

The primary focus of this paper is convective heat transfer in axial flow turbines. Research
activity involving heat transfer generally separates into two related areas: predictions and …

Heat transfer coefficient and static pressure distributions are experimentally investigated on
a gas turbine blade tip in a five-bladed stationary linear cascade. The blade is a two …

A combined experimental and computational study has been performed to investigate the
detailed distribution of convective heat transfer coefficients on the first-stage blade tip …

Tip leakage loss reduction is important for improving the turbine aerodynamic performance.
In this paper, the flow field of a transonic high pressure turbine stage with a squealer tip is …

A numerical study has been performed to investigate the effect of tip geometry on the tip
leakage flow and heat transfer characteristics in unshrouded axial flow turbines. Base line …

Experimental investigations are performed to measure the detailed heat transfer coefficient
