Résumé

Micro-cooling is a growing trend in the field of turbine blade cooling. Technical difficulties in the experiments of large-aspect-ratio rectangular microchannels that are commonly used in the turbine blades cause the rareness of related literature. In this study, the flow characteristics and heat transfer performance of the microchannels with and without semi-ellipsoidal protrusions, whose height is 0.6 mm and width is 9 mm, are numerically investigated. In the microchannel without protrusions, when 2214 < Re < 3589, the velocity has a Λ-shaped distribution, resulting in a Λ-shaped Nu distribution on the wall. When Re > 3760, it is worth noting that from the sidewall to the middle of the channel, Nu first decreases and then increases. In the microchannel with protrusions, when Re < 1214, the turbulence formed by the protrusion is almost all behind it and does not spread to both sides. When 1214 < Re < 2374, the turbulence caused by the protrusions gradually spreads to the middle and both sides of the channel with the increase in Re. When 2374 < Re < 3815, the turbulence caused by two columns of protrusions meet in the middle of the channel and forms stronger turbulence downstream. When Re > 3815, the flow is all turbulent. The protrusions enhance the irreversibility of heat transfer and friction. The performance evaluation criteria (PEC) increases first and then decreases with Re and the maximum value is 1.80 at Re = 2004. In this work, the details that are difficult to obtain in experiments are fully analyzed to provide suggestions for the design of micro-cooling structures in gas turbine blades.
