LES simulation of cooling practices for improved turbine blade cooling for enhanced thermodynamic efficiency.
Supervisor Prof A Turan
This study is focused on LES simulation of cooling jets in terms of enhanced aerothermal flow physics for optimum placement regarding enhanced film cooling effectiveness. It is primarily a state of the art CFD study for establishing design guidelines of enhanced turbine cooling via improved jet penetration and effectiveness correlations derived from LES simulations.
