Experimental investigation of coolant-flow characteristics of a sintered porous turbine blade
Local cooling-air flow rates through the walls of a sintered porous-metal turbine blade were measured at room temperature for a range of pressure drops. In order to check the validity of the correlation procedure, this procedure was used to correlate air-flow rates thorough two porous disks at temperatures up to 600 degrees F.245:00:Experimental investigation of coolant Data indicate the method permits room-temperature flow data to be used for heat-transfer work at elevated temperatures with reasonable accurach. Cooling-air flow distribution around the periphery of the test blade is presented for two internal cooling air pressures with the blade in a 1000 degrees Fahrenheit gas stream at a cascade-inlet Mach number of 0.45

From Summary: "A review of the status of the knowledge on turbine-blade cooling and a description of pertinent NACA investigations are presented. The current limitations in performance of uncooled and cooled engines are briefly discussed. Finally, the knowledge available and investigations to increase the knowledge on heat transfer, cooling-flow, and performance characteristics of cooled turbines are discussed.

Several methods of predicting the compressible-flow pressure loss across a baffled aircraft-engine cylinder were analytically related and were experimentally investigated on a typical air-cooled aircraft-engine cylinder. Tests with and without heat transfer covered a wide range of cooling-air flows and simulated altitudes from sea level to 40,000 feet. Both the analysis and the test results showed that the method based on the density determined by the static pressure and the stagnation temperature at the baffle exit gave results comparable with those obtained from methods derived by one-dimensional-flow theory. The method based on a characteristic Mach number, although related analytically to one-dimensional-flow theory, was found impractical in the present tests because of the difficulty encountered in defining the proper characteristic state of the cooling air. Accurate predictions of altitude pressure loss can apparently be made by these methods, provided that they are based on the results of sea-level tests with heat transfer

Report presenting an analytical and experimental investigation of the effects of cooling-air impeller performance on turbojet-engine performance at 70 and 100 percent of rated engine speed. Analysis indicated that the impeller performance has little effect on engine performance at rated engine speed for the coolant flows considered. Results regarding the impeller total-pressure ratio and cooling air available with compressor bleed are provided
