Title:
EFFECT OF BLADE-TIP CROSSOVER PASSAGES ON NATURAL-CONVECTION WATER-COOLING OF GAS-TURBINE BLADES
Corporate Author:

Abstract:
A water-cooled turbine was fabricated and tested to determine the effect of a connecting passage at the turbine rotor blade tip between a radial coolant passage 0.10 inch in diameter length-diameter ratio 25.5 and radial coolant passages in the legnth-diameter range of 5.1 to 20.4. Coolant flow through the connecting passage is induced by free-convection forces in the radial passages.
