- engine 10 is a CT7 engine commercially available from General Electric Aircraft Engines, Cincinnati, Ohio.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a rotor blade 40 that may be used with gas turbine engine 10 (shown in FIG. 1).
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the rotor blade 40.
- Each rotor blade 40 includes a hollow airfoil 42 and an integral dovetail 43 used for mounting airfoil 42 to a rotor disk (not shown) in a known manner.
- a plurality of rotor blades 40 form a high pressure turbine rotor blade stage (not shown) of gas turbine engine 10.
- the cooling circuits and chambers described herein may be utilized with various types of airfoils and is not limited to turbine blades.
- the airfoil 42 includes a first sidewall 44 and a second sidewall 46.
- First sidewall 44 is convex and defines a suction side of airfoil 42
- second sidewall 46 is concave and defines a pressure side of airfoil 42.
- Sidewalls 44 and 46 are connected together at a leading edge 48 and at an axially-spaced trailing edge 50 of airfoil 42 that is downstream from leading edge 48.
- Airfoil 42 includes a plurality of film holes 51 that are spaced radially along sidewalls 44 and 46 and between an airfoil tip 54 and a blade root 52 for discharging cooling fluid from airfoil 42 to facilitate cooling an outer surface 53 of airfoil 42.

Heat transfer enhanced by film holes 51 and trailing edge slots 55 facilitates cooling along airfoil outer surface 53.
- First and second sidewalls 44 and 46 extend radially from blade root 52 positioned adjacent dovetail 43 to airfoil tip 54 which defines a radially outer boundary of an internal cavity 56.
- Cavity 56 is defined within airfoil 42 between sidewalls 44 and 46.
- cavity 56 is divided into a plurality of cooling chambers 58 which form cooling circuits 60 that target specific areas of airfoil 42.
- the cooling chambers 58 provide for fluid movement in a radial direction between the root 52 and the tip 54 and generally through inter-cavity paths to define circuits 60.
- five cooling circuits 60 are provided. However, this is non-limiting as various numbers of circuits may be formed with cavities of varying sizes.
- cooling circuits 60 include cooling circuits 330, 340, 350, 360, and 370.
- airfoil 42 has more than five cooling circuits.
- This cooled turbine blade is separated into five distinct cooling circuits, covering the whole of the airfoil 42.
- the chambers generally labeled as chamber 58 are specifically labeled A - J.
- Impingement chamber A is located near the leading edge or front face of the blade 40.
- the impingement chamber A is in fluid communication with a direct feed up-path chamber B.
- the up-path chamber B extends radially through the blade 40 from the root 52 to the tip 54.
- Chambers C, D and E are high curvature region chambers which are in flow communication with one another. More specifically, chamber E is an up-path chamber, chamber F is a down chamber and chamber G is an up-path.
- These chambers E, D, C define the serpentine circuit 340 in flow communication near the tip 54 and root 52.
- Chambers A-E define a forward portion of cavities.
- the forward cavities are separated from rearward cavities by a transverse chamber K which extends from the suction side 44 to the pressure side 46.
- Chambers F and J are disposed toward the trailing edge 50 the blade 40 and are adjacent the suction side of the blade 40. This area of the blade 40 is cooler during operation due to air acceleration across this region and therefore chambers F and J extend radially from the blade root 52 and extend toward the trailing edge to cool the trailing tip 50, which is a high heat region of the blade 40.
- Chamber H Opposite chambers F and J and rearward of chamber K is chamber H, which is adjacent the hotter pressure side. Rearward of chamber H are chambers I and G in the direction of the trailing edge.
- a backbone rib 57 is disposed between the chambers F and J on the suction side, and chamber H on the pressure side.
- the backbone rib 57 is interrupted by the chamber K which extends from the suction side 44 and the pressure side 46.
- the backbone rib 57 further isolates the cooler chambers F and J from the warmer pressure side 46 of the blade 40.
- the high pressure compressed air flows radially upward from the root 52 in cavity B and through a number of cross over holes spanning root to tip into cavity A.
- the air then exits through a number of film holes 51 out of cavity A.
- This creates a film on the front face of the blade 40 in the area of the leading edge 48.
- the film creates an insulation layer about the turbine blade 40 to protect the blade from the distressing effects of the high temperature combustion gas engaging the turbine 20.
- Circuit 340 located at the high curvature area of the blade 40 and is a serpentine
- the serpentine circuit 340 is generally isolated to a single side, the suction side, of the blade 40.
- Serpentine circuit 340 is circumferentially adjacent to circuit 330 and begins with the cooling flow coming up from the root 52 in chamber E, making a 180 degree turn at the tip 54, flowing down radially in chamber D, making another 180 degree turn at the root 52, and finishing by flowing up chamber C, to define the serpentine circuit.
- the air exits a number of film holes 51 in chamber C located along the suction side 44.
- next circuit begins in the center of the airfoil with the air flowing radially upward from the root 52 in chamber K, making a 180 degree turn at the tip 54, flowing downward radially in chamber H, making an additional 180 degree turn at the root 52 and finishing by upward in chamber I.
- the fourth circuit or tip flag circuit 360 begins with a single feed at the root 52 that branches off into two separate chambers, F and J, allowing the air to flow radially outward through both cavities.
- the two chambers, F and J make a 90 degree turn towards the aft end of the blade 40 and merge to form a single chamber or manifold 59 (FIG. 7) that extends toward the trailing edge 50 of the blade 40.
- This chamber or manifold 59 passes behind chamber I, which decreases in size to accommodate passage and passes over chamber G which stops lower radially.
- the circuit 360 is shown as being isolated from by the surrounding circuit 350. While the circuit 350 is completely surrounding the circuit 360, the circuit 360 may be completely surrounded or partially surrounded to be within the scope of the isolation taught herein.
- the chambers F and J are located along the suction side of 44 of the blade 40. This area is cooler than other surfaces due to acceleration of air moving across the surface 44 reducing temperature of the blade 40. As a result, this provides a desirable location to position the root cavities and the compressed cooling air moving through chambers F and J remains cooler than in other regions of the blade 40.
- the chambers K, H and I surround the cooler chambers F and J. This provides some additional insulating properties by separating the warmer pressure side 46 from the chambers F and J, thus allowing the cooler air in chambers F and J to move radially upward through the blade 40 and cool the high heat area of the trailing edge 50.
- the final circuit 370 consists only of chamber G.
- the air flows radially outward and exits through a number of slots 55 to the trailing edge 50 spread from root 52 to tip 54.
- This configuration allows the cooling air to be used more effectively in specific regions of the blade.
- the isolation between the two sides of the airfoil keeps the cooling air from getting too hot by reducing its exposure to the hot gas side heat load.
- Chamber K which extends between both sides of the airfoil, is designed in such a way to break up the central rib 57, between chambers B and C through E and chambers F and H and J. This design feature reduces the thermal load on the airfoil by allowing the airfoil to grow as it heats up in the engine.
- FIG. 4 a second cross sectional view of the blade 40 is shown.
- the section cut is taken at an elevation which is higher than that of FIG. 3 so that the tip flag circuit 360 is shown more completely in this view.
- the various chambers 58 of the rotor blade 40 are shown as well as the relationship of the chambers 58 A- J to define various circuits.
- the first circuit 330 includes chamber A receiving compressed cooling air from through-holes in chamber B. These through holes extend radially and may comprise one or more holes.
- the serpentine circuit 340 receives air from the root end 52 (FIG. 2) of the blade 40 passing upwardly through chamber E and turning near the blade tip to move downward through chamber D. At the bottom of the chamber D, the air turns again and moves radially upward through chamber C. Although the circuit moves air toward the leading edge, it is within the scope of the present embodiments that the cooling air move from chamber C to chamber E.
- circuit 350 Moving toward the trailing edge, the next circuit encountered is circuit 350.
- the circuit 350 includes chambers K, H and I wherein cooling air moves upwardly through chamber K, moves downwardly through H and turns upwardly to chamber I. Again the direction of air may be reversed both radially and axially.
- the tip flag circuit 360 is represented by chambers F and J.
- the chambers F and J extending radially within the blade 40 and cooling air moves radially or upward from the root 52 through these chambers.
- the chambers F and J turn aft and merge to form the manifold 59. This manifold extends toward the trailing edge to provide cooling near the edge 50.
- the chambers K, H and I surround the circuit 360.
- the chamber K extends across the entirety between the suction side and the pressure side of the blade 40 and isolates one side of the tip flag circuit 360.
- Chamber I is disposed between the pressure side 46 and the chambers F and J. Additionally, the Chamber I extends upwardly from beneath the manifold 59 and changes shape to compensate for the passing of the manifold 59 toward the trailing edge 50.
- FIG. 5 an isometric view of an exemplary blade 40 is shown from below to depict flowpath trunks 70, 72 feeding the lower portion of the blade dovetail.
- a first circuit trunk 70 is depicted.
- the first circuit trunk 70 provides cooling air for the circuits 330, 340 and branches apart from the trunk to feed chambers B and E.
- the second circuit trunk 72 branches apart to feed the aft chambers including circuits 350, 360.
- the hotter portions of the blade at the forward and leading edge locations are cooled by trunk 70 while the cooler air associated with the suction side 44 and specifically tip flag circuit 360 is provided from the second circuit trunk 72.
- chambers K, H and I define the circuit 350.
- the tip flag circuit 360 is depicted wherein chambers F and J extend radially upward and turn to merge into a manifold 59 extending in the aft direction of the blade 40.
- the tip flag manifold 59 extends aft through the cavity 54 above the chambers I and G, as depicted with a portion of the side 44 wall removed.
- the manifold may feed into chamber G and subsequently out of the trailing edge 50.
- the above-described rotor blade is cost-effective and highly reliable.
- the rotor blade includes an airfoil having a number of cooling circuits which target cooling on the leading edge, pressure side, and suction side of the airfoil.
- a number of cooling techniques are employed to cool the exterior sidewalls of the airfoil, such as impingement cooling and near- wall cooling.
- the arrangement of the various chambers within the cooling circuits facilitates isolation and insulation of cooling fluid, further facilitating cooling of the airfoil as a result of cooler cooling fluid passing through the various chambers. Such an arrangement is made possible by advances in fabrication techniques, including, but not limited to, rapid
