Abstrakt: In order to reduce the operating costs of the engine, turbine designers must also increase the life of their components. However, high gas temperatures throughout the engine require more cooling air or better cooling efficiency to protect the parts from thermal damage. This study presents numerical research on cooling holes. Research focused on aerodynamics and thermal aspects of shallow whole angle. The numerical simulation is performed based on Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with SST turbulence model by using CFX. A modification has been done in the normal injection hole of 35°, by injecting the cold fluid at different blowing ratio, providing a significant change in the shape of holes which later we found in our numerical investigation giving good quality of film cooling effectiveness.
