Abstract
The present paper aims to analyze the applicability of film cooling method to a rocket as a thermal protection. Lateral curvature effect on film cooling performance through a single row of cylindrical holes with different spanwise angles is investigated. Four different lateral curvature cases (C = ∞, 100, 60, 20) with four inclination angles of cooling injection holes (β= 35°, 45°, 55°, 65°) are considered. The ANSYS CFX has been used for this computational simulation. The turbulence is approximated by a shear stress transport model (SST). Detailed film effectiveness distributions are presented for several blowing ratios (0.5, 1 and 1.5). The numerical results are compared with experimental data.
