Webinar: Turbine Blade Cooling Design with ANSYS Mechanical and Flownex Integration
  • 20th April 2017 - 21st April 2017
    5:00 am - 12:00 am

Finding ways to increase temperatures at the combustor exit is essential in maximising the efficiency of gas turbines. However, higher operating temperatures put the integrity of the high-pressure turbine components at risk since these temperatures exceed the melting points of turbine blade materials.

To combat this, turbine blade designs incorporate cooling flows that remove heat from the blades and shield the blades from the high-temperature combustion products. This process involves bleeding cool air from the compressor stage, diverting this air to the internal chambers of the blades and discharging it through small holes in the blade walls. This removes heat from the internal chambers of the blade as well as providing a thin, cool insulating layer along the surface of the blades.

In this webinar, we shall discuss using the Flownex Rotating Flow library to model the cooling flows and use ANSYS Mechanical coupled to Flownex to study the temperature distribution and stresses in the blade.
