Large Eddy Simulations on Film Cooling Flow Behaviors with Upstream Turbulent Boundary Layer Generated by Circular Cylinder

Large eddy simulations on film cooling hole array on a flat plate was carried out to investigate upstream turbulence effect. Circular cylinders were configured to create a turbulent boundary layer and its diameter has been adjusted to generate 13% upstream turbulence intensity in the main flow. Due...
