Title: Trailing edge cooling using angled impingement on surface enhanced with cast chevron arrangements

Abstract

A gas turbine engine component, including: a pressure side (12) having an interior surface (34); a suction side (14) having an interior surface (36); a trailing edge portion (30); and a plurality of suction side and pressure side impingement orifices (24) disposed in the trailing edge portion (30). Each suction side impingement orifice is configured to direct an impingement jet (48) at an acute angle (52) onto a target area (60) that encompasses a tip (140) of a chevron (122) within a chevron arrangement (120) formed in the suction side interior surface. Each pressure side impingement orifice is configured to direct an impingement jet at an acute angle onto an elongated target area that encompasses a tip of a chevron within a chevron arrangement formed in the pressure side interior surface.

Enhanced heat transfer surface for cast-in-bump-covered cooling surfaces and methods of enhancing heat transfer

Patent Chiu, Rong-Shi Paul [Glenmont, NY]; Hasz, Wayne Charles [Pownal, VT]; Johnson, Robert Alan [Simpsonville, SC]; ...

An annular turbine shroud separates a hot gas path from a cooling plenum containing a cooling medium. Bumps are cast in the surface on the cooling side of the shroud. A surface coating overlies the cooling side surface of the shroud, including the bumps, and contains cooling enhancement material. The surface area ratio of the cooling side of the shroud with the bumps and coating is in excess of a surface area ratio of the cooling side surface with bumps without the coating to afford increased heat transfer across the element relative to the heat transfer across the element withoutmore » the coating. « less

An airfoil (10) is disclosed for a gas turbine engine in which the airfoil (10) includes an internal cooling system (14) with one or more converging-diverging exit slots (20) configured to increase the effectiveness of the cooling system (14) at the trailing edge (34) of the airfoil (10) by increasing the contact of cooling fluids with internal surfaces (24, 30) of the pressure and suction sides (36, 38) of the airfoil (10).

A cooling arrangement (100), including: a substrate having a pocket (24) defined by a rib side surface (28) and a bottom surface (26); a feature (112) formed in the rib side surface; and an impingement plate (102). In an installed configuration (116) a resilience of the impingement plate enables an interference between the impingement plate and the feature that locks the impingement plate in an installed position (118). An elastic compression of the impingement plate from the installed configuration eliminates the interference.

A hot gas path component includes a substrate having an outer surface and an inner surface. The inner surface defines an interior space. The outer surface defines a pressure side surface and a suction side surface. The pressure and suction side surfaces are joined together at a leading edge and at a trailing edge. A first cooling passage is formed in the suction side surface of the substrate. It is coupled in flow communication to the interior space. A second cooling passage, separate from the first cooling passage, is formed in the pressure side surface. The second cooling passage ismore » « less

Partially turbulated trailing edge cooling passages for gas turbine nozzles

Patent Thatcher, Jonathan Carl [Schenectady, NY]; Burdgick, Steven Sebastian [Schenectady, NY]

A plurality of passages are spaced one from the other along the length of a trailing edge of a nozzle vane in a gas turbine. The passages lie in communication with a cavity in the vane for flowing cooling air from the cavity through the passages through the tip of the trailing edge into the hot gas path. Each passage is partially turbulated and includes ribs in an aft portion thereof to provide enhanced cooling effects adjacent the tip of the trailing edge. The major portions of the passages are smooth bore. By this arrangement, reduced temperature gradients across themore » « less
