Definitions
- the invention relates to film cooling holes of gas turbine components to be cooled.
- Gas turbine components having film cooling holes may be, for example, turbine blades, ring segments or combustion chamber components.
- a cooling air film can be produced on areas of the components to be cooled which can be overflowed by hot gas, which should protect them from direct contact and thus from the thermal influences of the hot gas flowing therealong.
- EP 0 227 578 A2 discloses a conventional film cooling air hole, in which a diffuser-like region adjoins a round inlet.
- Object of this invention is to provide a film cooling hole, with a particularly efficient film cooling can be ⁇ he can see.
- Figure 1 is a conventional film cooling hole with counter ro ⁇ animal vortex pairs.
- FIG. 2 shows the conventional film cooling hole in a cross section
- FIG. 3 shows the conventional film cooling hole in a plan view
- FIG. 4 shows a film cooling hole according to the invention in a perspective view
- FIG. 5 shows the film cooling hole according to the invention with counter-rotating swirl pairs, a cross section through a component wall having the film cooling hole according to the invention and a top view, perpendicular to the first surface, of the film cooling hole according to the invention.
- FIGS. 4 to 7 show a previously known film cooling hole 2.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 show a previously known film cooling hole 2.
- Each of the film cooling holes 2, 20 shown is formed as a through hole in a wall 14 to be charged with hot gas, so as to extend from a first surface 16 of the wall 14 to a second surface 18 opposite thereto the wall 14 extends.
- the first surface 16 is overflowed at be ⁇ humor proper use of the invention from a hotter medium M is H, whereas the second surface 18 currencies ⁇ rend which a cooler medium M is exposed to K.
- Customarily as it concerns with the hotter medium is a work ⁇ medium and the cooler medium is cooling air.
- the wall 14 can, for example, one component of a turbine blade of a turbomachine, of a ring segment, a combustion chamber wall ⁇ or the like while one or more rows with such or similar film cooling holes 2, have twentieth
- the respective film cooling holes 2, 20 are inclined relative to the surfaces 16, 18.
- Each film cooling hole 2, 20 comprises an inflow opening 22, which is arranged in the second surface 18. Through this inflow opening 22, the cooler medium can flow into the relevant film cooling hole. The inflowing medium leaves the relevant film cooling hole 2, 20 through an outflow opening 24 arranged in the first surface 16.
- each film cooling hole has a virtual longitudinal axis LL, wel ⁇ che to he stretches ⁇ through the centers of the flow-in portion 26 and extends beyond it.
- the film in question ⁇ cooling holes 2, 20 are opposed to the first surface 16 DER art inclined so that the virtual central longitudinal axis LL - in a cross-sectional view through the respective wall 14 - having an upstream region 16a of the second surface 16 form an acute angle of inclination N including , Viewed along the virtual longitudinal axis LL have the
- the diffuser portion 28 of the film cooling hole 2, 20 comprises four individually identifiable side walls, which are called peripheral portions according to the following ⁇ and along the circulation merge into one another.
- a first peripheral portion UA H has a smaller distance to the first surface 16 and thus faces the hotter medium M H.
- this peripheral portion UA H terminates at a diffuser edge 34 upstream of the hotter medium M H and, on the other hand, transitions laterally on both sides into a respective lateral peripheral portion UA S i, UA S 2.
- the two lateral circumferential portions UA S i, S 2 UA will then in each case in a common ⁇ seed peripheral portion UA K above, which has a smaller distance from the second surface 18 and is therefore facing the cooler Me ⁇ medium M, K.
- the further peripheral portion UA K thus ends at a with respect to the hotter medium M H.
- the diffuser downstream edge 30 that is straight preferably in materiality ⁇ union. Overall, a distance w bc between inflow-side diffuser edge 34 and outflow-side diffuser edge 30 can be determined.
- the cooler medium facing peripheral portion UA K with the virtual longitudinal axis LL includes a so-called reserve angle CX3.
- an opening angle can SSI each between the lateral peripheral portions UA S i, S 2 of the UA
- Diffuser section 28 and be detected with the virtual central longitudinal ⁇ LL.
- the increasing in the diffuser section 28 of the film cooling hole 20 enlargement of the flow cross ⁇ section alone in one dimension (lateral directions LR) takes place.
- the reserve angle CX3 has a value between 1 ° and 0 °. Consequently, the increase in the flow cross-section is mainly effected by the fact that the lateral circumferential sections UA S , UA S 2 of the film cooling hole 20 diverge, whereas in FIG
- Diffuser section 28 the distance between the hotter medium M H facing peripheral portion UA H and the cooler medium M K facing peripheral portion UA K at the
- Outflow opening 24 is at most only slightly larger than the diameter d of the inflow 26th
- the area ratio is increased: for a given mass flow of cooler medium through the film cooling hole 20 concerned, the flow velocity at the outflow opening 24 of the film cooling hole 20 can be reduced compared to a conventional film cooling hole 2, thereby increasing the tendency of the exiting Jet in cooler medium M K for detachment from the first surface 16 can be reduced.
- Diffuser portion 28 is larger than the 7-times the diameter d of the flow-in portion 26. This ensures that the diffuser section weakenedse is long and thus can expand rea ⁇ accordingly. During operation, a comparatively wide cooling air film can then form.
- Einströmabitess 26 Preferably, it is less than 50% of the diameter d.
- the diffuser inlet begins with a comparatively gentle diffuser expansion, which reduces the tendency of the cooling air flow to detach.
- the diffuser-like expansion of the film cooling hole 20 does not begin at the portion of the periphery of the film cooling hole 20, which is closest to the second surface 18, son ⁇ countries on the two lateral portions of the periphery.
- a loss-less fanning of the flow inside the film cooling hole 20 can be achieved, since a pressure distribution sets, the less asymmetrical, but rather
- a perpendicular to the flow direction of the hotter medium M H detectable width B of the outflow opening 24 is greater than in conventional film cooling holes 2 with comparable diffuser opening ratios.
- the distance between the two legs of the counter-rotating vortex pairs 23 can be increased by the pre ⁇ knocked design.
- Characterized in the effluent Be ⁇ area of the virtual central L Kunststoffsachsse LL cooler medium M K is less influenced by the counter-rotating vortex pairs 23, which reduces the mixing. Also, the strength of the counter-rotating vortex pairs 23 can be reduced. As a result, this leads to egg ⁇ ner enlarged coverage of the first surface 16 with the desired cooling air film.
- Diffuser section 28 in the direction of flow of the hotter medium M H vertical direction (lateral direction LR) to a more uniform distribution of the cooler medium M K at the discharge opening 24.
- Diffuser edge 30 can be reduced. Overall, so that the cooling can be made uniform. For this reason is the
- Opening angle ßi not greater than 12 °. Preferably, it is 11.5 °.
- the inflow-side diffuser edge 34 is designed symmetrically curved, wherein its central region is arranged slightly further upstream than its mallli ⁇ chen ends.
- the film cooling hole 20 can be produced more easily, since first the inflow drilled and then the contour of the diffuser section can be produced.
- the invention relates to a film cooling hole 20 of gas turbine components to be cooled, with an inflow section 26 with a constant flow cross section, at which a diffuser section 28 with a changing flow cross section follows.
- a diffuser section 28 with a changing flow cross section follows.
