Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The following are conclusions and recomendations from the study. Primary wake effect is linear reduction in (eta) with St. Secondary wake effect is skewing of suction/pressure side cooling. Steady computations match experimental Nu, but overpredict (eta). Unsteady computations elucidate wake/film interaction. Model may be used to estimate wake passing effect. Need boundary layer and full stage experiments. Need resolved film hole and full stage unsteady computations. Need validated turbulence models for film cooling.
