Impact of temperature ratio on overall cooling performance: low-order-model-based analysis of experiment design by Naidu, AD, Povey, T

“…We are primarily interested in the variation in overall effectiveness when the controlling non-dimensional groups change in a natural co-dependent way with changes in temperature ratio: that is, the practical situation of interest to engine designers. We distinguish this from the situation in which individual non-dimensional groups are varied in isolation: a situation that we believe is essentially impossible to meaningfully approximate in practice, despite a body of literature purporting to do the same. …”

A ROBUST RADIAL TRAVERSE TEMPERATURE PROBE FOR APPLICATION TO A GAS TURBINE HP/IP STAGE by Wilson, A, Ireland, P, Stevenson, R, Thorpe, S, Martin, D, ASME
