Gas turbine, gas turbine blade, and manufacturing method of gas turbine blade
View Patent ↗A gas turbine blade includes a hollow-blade-form portion formed by a leading edge on an upstream side of an working fluid of a gas turbine in a flow direction, a trailing edge on a downstream side of the working fluid in the flow direction, and a suction surface and a pressure surface reaching the trailing edge from the leading edge, and a shank portion for supporting the blade form portion. The blade also includes a partition for connecting the suction surface and the pressure surface in a hollow region of the blade-form portion, coolant paths formed by the partition, the suction surface, and the pressure surface, an impingement cooling hole formed in the partition for dividing the first path that is a flow path nearest to the leading edge side among the coolant paths and the second path adjacent to the first path, and first and second converter portions.
