Abstract

Numerical investigations of turbine blade are carried out using unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and large eddy simulation (LES) techniques. The goal of the present studies is to investigate the turbine blade aerodynamics and blade cooling techniques. The simulations are performed for a Reynolds number, Re = 1.3 x 10^6, based on the chord, c, of the airfoil and free-stream velocity. The computational results reveal the dissipative nature, of URANS, associated with the turbulence modeling.
