Abstract
In the present study, a numerical investigation was conducted to enhance the film cooling efficiency by using anti-vortex designs. Four configurations are considered in this paper, which are the configuration with the streamwise cylindrical injection, the case with an upstream Barchan dune shape ramp (BDSR), the case with sister holes and the configuration that combine the Barchan dune shape with sister holes. The effects of a blowing ration (M = 0.5, 0.85, 1.0 and 1.5) on the film cooling effectiveness are considered. The validation shows good agreement and almost all flow structures are well reproduced by the RANS computation. Results show that the Barchan dune shapes with sister holes have an influence on thermal and flow structures, this configuration substantially augments the film cooling efficiency.
