Abstract:
An air cooled guide vane (20) is provided with a stack of ducts (40) each of which converges towards its outlet end. Air flow turbulators (42) are positioned in ducts (40) and pressure losses in the air flow brought about by flowing over the turbulators (42), is recovered by the constricting effect of the ducts (40).
