Design of Internal Cooling Passages: Investigation of Thermal Performance of Serpentine Passages

Gas turbines are used to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy. The thermal efficiency of the gas turbine is directly related to the turbine inlet temperature. The combustion and turbine technology has improved to such an extent that the operating temperature in the turbine inlet is higher t...
