摘要:
A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced apart pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface extending in a radial direction. The trailing edge is arranged on an aft side of the turbine blade. A root supports a platform from which the airfoil extends and a cooling passage extends within the root in the radial direction to the airfoil. A lower wing is arranged beneath the platform on the aft side and extends in an axial direction to provide a U-shaped channel with the platform that extends in a circumferential direction. An impingement hole extends from the U-channel to the cooling passage.

A gas turbine engine vane assembly provides double impingement cooling of a vane platform. An impingement structure disposed adjacent the vane platform defines at least first and second plenums in fluid flow communication, respectively defined in part by the vane platform. The vane platform has first and second surfaces defined within the first and second plenums, and which are cooled by successive impingement of secondary cooling air flow through the impingement structure.

An airfoil for a gas turbine engine comprises a radially extending body having a transverse cross-section. The transverse cross-section comprises a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side and a suction side. The pressure side extends between the leading edge and the trailing edge with a predominantly concave curvature. The suction side extends between the leading edge and the trailing edge with a predominantly convex curvature. The suction side includes an approximately flat portion flanked by forward and aft convex portions. In another embodiment, the suction side includes a series of local curvature changes that produce inflection points in the convex curvature of the suction side spaced from the trailing edge.

A vane assembly for a gas turbine engine comprises a plurality of airfoils extending between platforms and a plurality of effusion holes which are defined in at least one of the inner and outer platforms in a region intermediate adjacent airfoils. The effusion holes provide fluid flow communication between a cooling air source and the gas path.
摘要:
A cooled airfoil has an internal cooling passage in which a plurality of trip strips are arranged to effect variable coolant flow and heat transfer coefficient distribution so as to advantageously minimize the amount of coolant flow required to adequately cool the airfoil structure. In one embodiment, this is accomplished by varying the dimensions of the trip strips along a transversal axis relative to the cooling passage.

A turbine component includes an aft cooling circuit that extends between a turbine midsection and a turbine trailing end. The aft cooling circuit includes a trailing end section proximate the trailing end, a first interior section proximate the turbine midsection, and a first intermediate section fluidly connected between the trailing end section and the first interior section. A forward cooling circuit of the turbine component extends between the turbine midsection and a turbine leading end. The forward cooling circuit includes a leading end section proximate the leading end, a second interior section proximate the turbine midsection, and a plurality of second intermediate sections fluidly connected between the leading end section and the second interior section. The leading end section, the second intermediate section, the first intermediate section, and the trailing end section each include a plurality of coolant discharge openings for facilitating cooling of the turbine component.
