Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

A study was made of heat transfer in turbine blades and the effects on blade temperature of cooling the blade root and tip, changing the dimensions of the blades, raising the cycle temperatures, insulating with ceramics, and cooling by circulation of air or water through hollow blades.
