Abstract
A novel method of inserting a radiation enhancement plate in a turbine blade internal cooling channel is established in this paper. It can extend cold surfaces for radiation and thus enhance total heat transfer. Numerical investigations are carried out to explore the flow and coupled convection and surface radiation in the rotating channel for different channel models. The results indicate that the model inserting the radiation enhancement plate roughed with W-shaped ribs (model D) exhibits the highest cooling performance. Compared with the existing channel model (model A), the total Nusselt number ratio and the performance evaluation criterion increase by 90.53% and 21.67%, respectively, and the maximum and average temperature decrease by 339.80 K and 73.07 K, respectively. In addition, the heat transfer difference between the leading and trailing walls caused by the Coriolis force is remarkably reduced. Influences of pertinent parameters including the Reynolds number, the rotation number, the wall heat flux, and the wall emissivity are also investigated. It is demonstrated that the method has an excellent self-enhancement effect.
