The Aero-Thermal Performance of Purge Flow and Discrete Holes Film Cooling of Rotor Blade Platform in Modern High Pressure Gas Turbines: A Review

Design of cooling systems for rotor platforms is critical due to the complex flow field and heat transfer phenomena related to the secondary flow structures originating at the blade leading edge. Horseshoe vortex and passage vortex are the fluid-dynamic features that largely influence the aerodynami...
