Beschreibung:
The Glenn-HT code is a 3D Navier-Stokes solver that has been used and validated for a variety of convective heat transfer problems associated with turbine flows. These flows have included tip clearance, simplified internal cooling, and film cooling. The multi-block capability of the code makes it particularly useful for the complex geometries of such flows. One of the goals of the UEET program is to reduce turbine cooling flow while increasing turbine inlet temperature. The Glenn-HT code gives researchers a tool to analyze the flow within the very complicated geometries associated with actual cooled turbine designs. Through these analyses and their comparison with experimental data, it is hoped to extend the applicability of the Glenn-HT code for use as a tool to improve turbine cooling designs to meet UEET goals.
