Abstract:
In the present study the film cooling performance in terms of the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness on the scaled suction side model of an actual guide vane was investigated. An infrared thermography measurement system was used to determine highly resolved distribution of models surface temperature. Two different film cooling hole configurations were investigated: a single row of fanshaped holes and a double row of cylindrical holes in staggered arrangement. The influence of blowing rate and mainstream turbulence level on effectiveness was investigated in a wide range for both of the injection configurations.

Mechanisms of Heat Transfer
Conduction, accounting for approximately 3% of body heat loss at rest, is the process of exchanging heat between molecules of two materials in direct contact. This can result in both heat loss and gain. For instance, when the body is submerged in water, which conducts heat 20 times more effectively than air, it can either lose or gain significant heat.
