Abstract:This paper deals with a computational study to predict important dimensions of a rectangular fin used in gas turbine blade cooling for satisfying a prescribed internal heat generation. The heat transfer is assumed to occur by simultaneous conduction, convection and radiation. The effect of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity has been also taken into consideration. Rectangular fin geometry has been considered due to its simplicity and easiness of fabrication. Corresponding to known values of various ther… Show more
