Summary, in English

In this study, the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness and conjugate heat transfer characteristics for a circular hole are investigated numerically. Seven turbulator ribs are located on the internal wall, and a film cooling hole between two adjacent ribs has an inclination angle of 30°. The secondary flow rate is affected by the internal channel flow velocity, and the external film cooling is combined with the internal channel flow conditions. In the conjugate heat transfer research, two different plate materials are considered to analyze the heat conduction characteristics. The results show that the turbulator ribs enhance the downstream heat transfer and provide a more extensive coverage area and effective cooling protection. More blade-wall heat is transferred by heat conduction, which makes the area-average wall temperature for the high thermal conductivity case to decrease along the secondary flow direction. The wall temperature distribution and film cooling effectiveness are affected significantly by heat conduction.
