Analysis of sweeping jet and film composite cooling using the decoupled model

Abstract

Abstract The heat transfer process of the sweeping jet and film composite cooling (SJF) structure of the turbine blade leading edge is complex. The current work divides the overall cooling effectiveness of the SJF into the impingement heat transfer effectiveness, the convection heat transfer effectiveness inside the film holes, and the external film cooling effectiveness by the decoupled method. Various cooling effectiveness proportions and trends are compared when the blowing ratios are 1.05, 2.07, and 4.11. There is an average ratio of 64.33% for impingement heat transfer effectiveness and 38.02% for convection heat transfer effectiveness. The ratio of external film cooling effectiveness gradually changes from positive to negative with the increase of the blowing ratio. Therefore, the proportion of external film cooling effectiveness and impingement heat transfer effectiveness should be considered when applying SJF. The convection heat transfer effectiveness cannot be ignored, especially when the design scheme of the shower head is used.
