Abstract:

Blades of the same profile, with a deflector ensuring transverse flow in the blade cavity from the leading to the trailing edge were tested to study the cooling characteristics of several types of air exhaust with respect to the trailing edges of the blades. Best trailing edge cooling was obtained with blades where the cooling air is exhausted directly into the ring clearance. Author
