Abstract

Thermal performance of film cooling in a transonic high-pressure vane is studied by means of two different turbulence modelling strategies: the γ-ReΘ transition model and the fully turbulent k-ω SST model. Selected test case is the LS89 vane, appropriately modified to include a cylindrical film cooling device. The MUR237 transonic configuration is selected as representative of highly loaded vanes without shocks, with transonic Mach number over the suction side. The specifically designed cooling system is based on the non-dimensional geometrical and operating conditions of the high-pressure transonic MT1 cooled vane. Transition model constants are initially tuned to match the available experimental data for the original (uncooled) configuration. Eventually, results obtained with both models are compared with each other for several jet conditions, showing non-negligible influence of turbulence modelling on flow distribution and mixing between coolant and main-flow.
