Large Eddy Simulation of Film Cooling Involving Compound Angle Hole with Bulk Flow Pulsation

The effects of pulsations in the main flow on film cooling from a cylindrical hole with a spanwise injection angle (orientation angle) are analyzed using numerical methods. The hole is located on a flat plate with a 35° inclined injection angle, and the compound angle denotes the orientation and inc...

Large Eddy Simulation of Film Cooling Involving Compound Angle Hole with Bulk Flow Pulsation
description The effects of pulsations in the main flow on film cooling from a cylindrical hole with a spanwise injection angle (orientation angle) are analyzed using numerical methods. The hole is located on a flat plate with a 35° inclined injection angle, and the compound angle denotes the orientation and inclination angles. The film cooling flow fields for the sinusoidal flow pulsation of 36 Hz from a cylindrical hole with 0° and 30° orientation angles at the time-averaged blowing ratio of <i>M</i> = 0.5 are simulated via large eddy simulation (LES). The CFD results are validated using the experimental data and compared to the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) and URANS results. The results reveal that if the pulsation frequency goes from 0 to 36 Hz, the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness decreases regardless of the compound angle; however, the film cooling for the 30° orientation angle exhibits better performance than that for a simple angle (0°). Moreover, if 36 Hz pulsation is applied, the film cooling effectiveness obtained by unsteady RANS exhibits a large deviation from the experimental data, unlike the LES results.
