Experimental Study on Combined Impingement/Film Cooling Characteristics at the Leading Edge of a Turbine Vane
To investigate the overall cooling effectiveness and differences in cooling uniformity of combined impingement/film cooling at the leading edge of a turbine vane under different operating conditions
blowing tests are conducted under medium-temperature and mediu
m-pressure conditions of 412 K and 300 kPa on a real-profile metallic vane with a typical single-row combined impingement/film cooling configuration on the leading-edge suction surface.The leading-edge surface temperature is fully visualized and measured using infrared thermography
and the overall cooling effectiveness distribution is obtained.The combined cooling performance in the spanwise and streamwise directions is quantitatively investigated under the coupled effects of blowing ratios ranging from 0.2 to 2.0 and mainstream Reynolds numbers ranging from 1.8×10

to 3.8×10

and the corresponding cooling characteristics are summarized.It is shown that
within the investigated parameter range
different degrees of spanwise cooling non-uniformity occur at the vane leading edge
and regions of high overall cooling effectiveness are concentrated on the coolant-inlet side at

H
≥0.5.When the blowing ratio increases from 0.8 to 1.6
the spanwise cooling peak variation rate decreases from 65.4% to 56.6%
while changes in the mainstream Reynolds number have no obvious effect on the shape of the overall cooling effectiveness distribution.In the streamwise direction
due to variations in vane surface curvature
a region in which the overall cooling effectiveness rapidly decreases by approximately 40% occurs downstream of the film holes at

≥0.25.The overall-averaged integrated cooling effectiveness increases approximately linearly and nearly doubles with the blowing ratio in the range of 0.2 ≤

≤0.8
whereas it decreases by approximately 35.0%—54.3% at different blowing ratios when the mainstream Reynolds number increases from 1.8 × 10

to 3.8 × 10

.The results provide a reference for optimizing the cooling parameter configuration at turbine vane leading edges and improving combined cooling uniformity.
