Design/methodology/approach - Experimental and numerical investigation of film cooling effectiveness in a flat plate with two rows which are rectangular injection holes. The liquid crystal technique has been used for measuring the heat transfer coefficients on the mixture region. Three injection holes in model are in a single row. The holes are rectangular cross section and they are 9 x 6.5 mm. The injection holes are inclined at 30 degrees along the mainstream direction. The blowing ratios are from 0.5 to 2.0. The experiments and their computational models are established to investigate its effects at the 330 and 340 and 350 K injection temperatures and the different blowing ratios. Findings - The results show that the film cooling effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient of a given flat plate surface, both along the mainstream and lateral direction, depend on the optimum selection of parameters. In this study, the highest effectiveness is determined at a blowing ratio of 0.5. Further increasing the ratio results in reverse effect on the film cooling effectiveness. Originality/value - It is the fist time the film cooling effectiveness is compared at the rectangular injection holes with two rows as experimental and numerical.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessFilms (states of matter)CoolingHeat TransferArticle81210611710.1108/00022660910941794Q2WOS:000265152900002N/A
