... rate s ˙ = 0.254 mm s −1 , incursion depth s = 1 mm, and foil thickness B = 0.4 mm. These rubbing conditions correspond to the comparable experiment of Pychynski et al. [ 5 ] (Figs. 8( c ) and 10( c )), except for the rubbing duration. In the following sections, the experimental...

... part of this paper, results of pulsed impingement cooling experiments on a curved plate are presented. The potential of this novel cooling approach to increase the convective heat transfer in the inner side of turbine blades is quantified. The second part of this paper presents a gas turbine cycle...

... configurations are investigated experimentally with flow visualization for validation of the numerical simulations. Second, two sets of calculations are performed, one under the same conditions as the experiments and another according to realistic hot gas conditions. The latter is concluded with conjugate heat...
