Abstract
The two-equation turbulence models used for the present study are the commonly used standard k-ॉ model and k-ω model. In order to achieve this target, numerical simulation was initiated in Ansys Fluent to simulate a flow over a flat test surface with a diameter of 4mm straight, circular film cooling hole at angled injections of 25°, 30°, 35°and 40°. The comparison between the numerical calculations and the theoretical results showed the standard k-ω turbulence model gave better predictions against those with the standard k-ω turbulence models. The ability of k-ω model in closely predicting the cooling behavior is due to the precise modeling of the lateral spreading of the film. The isotropic two-equation turbulence models exhibited a huge dissent. The results also indicated that increasing the mass flow rates in the mainstream channels reduces the temperature distribution along the stream-wise direction.
