摘要:
A turbine rotor blade for a turbine section of an engine is provided. The rotor blade includes a platform and an airfoil extending from the platform into a mainstream gas path of the turbine section. The airfoil includes a pressure side wall, a suction side wall joined to the pressure side wall at a leading edge and a trailing edge, and a tip cap extending between the suction side wall and the pressure side wall. The rotor blade further includes an internal cooling circuit having a tip cap passage configured to deliver cooling air to the tip cap and a flow accelerator positioned within the tip cap passage of the internal cooling circuit.
摘要:
Turbine blade airfoils, showerhead film cooling systems thereof, and methods for cooling the turbine blade airfoils using the same are provided. The airfoil has a leading edge and a trailing edge, a pressure sidewall and a suction sidewall both extending between the leading and the trailing edges, and an internal cavity for supplying cooling air. A showerhead of film cooling holes is connected to the internal cavity. Each film cooling hole has an inlet connected to the internal cavity and an outlet opening onto an external wall surface at the leading edge of the airfoil. A plurality of surface connectors is formed in the external wall surface. Each surface connector of the plurality of surface connectors interconnects the outlets of at least one selected pair of the film cooling holes.

摘要:
An airfoil for a gas turbine engine is provided. The airfoil includes a body with a leading edge, a trailing edge, a first side wall extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and a second side wall extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The body defines an interior cavity. The airfoil includes an interior wall disposed within the interior cavity of the body and extending between the first wall and the second wall to define a supply chamber and a leading edge chamber. The interior wall defines a cooling hole with a base portion and a locally extended portion to direct cooling air from the supply chamber to the leading edge chamber such that the cooling air impinges upon the leading edge.
