Abstract
Local impermeable wall effectiveness is measured along a concave surface downstream of a row of film cooling jets. Three different injection hole diameters, two density ratios (0. 95 and 2. 0), and a wide range of blowing rates (0. 3 to 2. 7) are considered. Except close to injection, where normal momentum is strong, an increase in blowing rate results in improved film cooling performance. This is attributed to an increase in thermal mass (capacity) of coolant, tangential momentum of the jet, and blockage.
