Abstract

For the cooling of the combustor liner, this investigation considers a double-wall cooling structure in which the compound angle and orientation angle of the effusion hole are 30° and ±30°. respectively. Also, to analyze the effect of orientation angle, data for comparison in a simple angle configuration with an orientation angle of 0° is provided. In this study, the heat transfer and flow characteristics of the double wall cooling structure by the change in orientation angle were numerically analyzed. The results of the numerical simulations was obtained using ANSYS FLUENT V 21.1 numerical codes with a shear stress transfer k-ω turbulence model. Data are provided for main flow Reynolds numbers from 142,000 to 149,000. and overall blowing ratios from 5.5 to 7.4. The use of compound and orientation angle arrangements inhibits the formation of horseshoe-shaped vortices,BRresulting in asymmetry of the counter rotating vortex. As a result, the lift-off of the coolant injected from the effusion holes is suppressed from the effusion cooling plate. When orientation angle is changed from 0° to ± 30°, the area-averaged film cooling effectiveness and area-averaged heat transfer coefficient increase by 7.7% and 12.4% overall, respectively. The skewed and non-symmetric shape of the horseshoe-shaped vortex is also increased by the use of orientation angle arrangement, which also provide localized improvements in surface thermal protection.
