Effects of Tip-Cavity Film Cooling on the Heat Transfer Characteristics of Gas Turbine Blades with Various Squealer Tip Geometries

Blade tip leakage flow in gas turbines is associated with aerodynamic loss and local heat transfer variation in the tip region. In this study, the flow structure, total pressure loss coefficient, heat transfer coefficient (HTC), and film cooling effectiveness (FCE) were numerically investigated for...
