title: Transonic injection in interaction with transverse compressible flow.
abstract: An extensive study devoted to modelling blade cooling was undertaken at CEAT a few years ago in collaboration with SNECMA. For the turbomachinery applications, an experimental configuration of a turbulent boundary layer with heat transfer was studied for compressible and incompressible flows. The research presented here is a part of that study and this paper reports on the experimental results of an investigation concerned with a row of transonic jets interacting with a transverse flow. In many applications, the cooling layer does not emerge onto the surface from a tangential slot but comes from a slot normal to or inclined to what is otherwise a flush surface. In this case the freestream interacts with the coolant flow. The secondary (jet) flow is introduced at an angle of 45 degrees to the mainstream flow direction. Visualization studies using the surface flow patterns and surface temperature flow patterns are reported and discussed.
