Sumario:The conjugate heat transfer of a turbine blade is influenced by several factors. To analyze the influence of each factor, the published one-dimensional conjugate heat transfer model was improved through theoretical analysis in this study. An overall cooling effectiveness equation containing three dimensionless parameters (adiabatic film cooling effectiveness η, Biot number on the mainstream side Bi(g), and ratio between the heat transfer coefficients of the external and internal walls h(g)/h(i)) was obtained. The sensitivity of the overall cooling effectiveness ϕ to these three parameters was obtained through a multi-parameter sensitivity analysis. The results showed that increasing η could improve ϕ the most effectively. The interactions between the dimensionless parameters were analyzed by developing sensitivity charts. The results showed that increasing η from 0.4 to 0.5 could reduce the sensitivity of ϕ to the other two parameters by approximately 15%, whereas increasing Bi(g) had little effect on the sensitivity of ϕ to each dimensionless parameter. Increasing h(g)/h(i) could improve the sensitivity to η. The above conclusions could also be applied to the plate film hole and plate impingement effusion structures. The effects of different internal cooling structures and film hole structures on the three dimensionless parameters were studied by performing numerical simulations, which verified the accuracy of the one-dimensional conjugate heat transfer model in this study. The results showed that the internal cooling structures had little effect on the distribution of η and Bi(g). The heat transfer coefficient on the coolant side could be effectively improved by installing film holes. The film hole structures mainly affected ϕ by influencing the distribution of η.
