Adiabatic and overall effectiveness in the showerhead of a film cooled turbine vane and effects of surface curvature on adiabatic effectiveness

Two sets of experiments were performed on a simulated turbine nozzle guide vane. First, adiabatic and overall effectiveness measurements were taken in the showerhead region of the vane using adiabatic and matched Biot vane models, respectively. Measurements of overall effectiveness in the showerhead...
