Abstract
A parametric analysis and optimization of double-jet film-cooling holes was performed using three-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations with the shear stress transport turbulence model. The numerical results for film-cooling effectiveness were validated in comparison with experimental data. The lateral and streamwise distances between the centers of the holes, along with two lateral ejection angles, were chosen as the design variables. The effects of these four variables on the film-cooling effectiveness were evaluated. For optimization of double-jet film-cooling holes, film-cooling effectiveness was considered as the objective function. Latin hypercube sampling was used to determine the design points. A weighted average surrogate model was constructed using the objective function values calculated at the design points. Sequential quadratic programming was used to search for the optimal point from the constructed surrogate. The cooling performance of double-jet film-cooling holes was improved considerably by optimization in comparison with the reference geometry.
