Abstract:Modern gas turbines operate at high temperatures, which exceed the endurance limit of material, and therefore the turbines components are cooled by the air taken from the compressor. The cooling provides positive impact on lifetime of GT has negative impact on its performance. In convection-cooled turbine blade the coolant is usually discharged through the trailing edge and it leads to limitation on the minimal size of trailing edge and thereby negatively affects the losses. Moreover, the injection of cooling … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
