Turbine blade with a central blowout at the trailing edge
View Patent ↗A turbine blade with aerodynamic aerofoil, which extends from a bottom to a top end and has two aerofoil walls extending between, which transversely thereto extend from a common leading to a common trailing edge, and with at least one platform, which extends transversely in relation to the aerofoil and is arranged at one of the two ends of the aerofoil. A number of openings are provided in the trailing edge between the bottom end and the top end. Either the opening in the trailing edge arranged closest to the platform surface extends into the platform surface or the platform surface facing the aerofoil is lowered locally in the region of that opening that is closest to the platform, and the opening opens out into a portion of the trailing edge that has become free as a result of the lowering.
1. A turbine blade or vane, comprising:
an aerodynamically curved airfoil, which extends from a root-side end to a head-side end and which comprises two airfoil walls that extend therebetween and extend transversely thereto from a common leading edge to a common trailing edge where the two airfoil walls merge together, a platform which extends transversely to the airfoil and which is arranged at one end of the root-side end and the head-side end, and a fillet transition between the airfoil and the platform, wherein an interface line is formed where the fillet transition meets a platform surface,
wherein a number of openings are provided through the trailing edge between the root-side end and the head-side end which are configured to blow out cooling air centrally between the two airfoil walls,
wherein an extended opening of the number of openings in the trailing edge is arranged closest to the platform surface and extends into the platform surface so that part of an outlet cross section of the extended opening is located in the trailing edge and another part of the outlet cross section extends downstream through the interface line and into the platform surface, the extended opening effective to create film cooling of the platform downstream of the trailing edge.
2. The turbine blade or vane as claimed claim 1 ,
wherein the extended opening comprises a greater outflow cross section than other openings of the number of openings.
3. The turbine blade or vane as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the platform is coated.
4. The turbine blade or vane as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the turbine blade or vane is in the form of a guide vane or of a rotor blade.
5. A turbine blade or vane, comprising:
an aerodynamically curved airfoil, which extends from a root-side end to a head-side end and which comprises two airfoil walls that extend therebetween and extend transversely thereto from a common leading edge to a common trailing edge where the two airfoil walls merge together, and a platform which extends transversely to the airfoil and which is arranged at one end of the root-side end and the head-side end,
wherein a number of openings are provided through the trailing edge between the root-side end and the head-side end which are configured to blow out cooling air centrally between the two airfoil walls,
wherein a platform surface facing toward the airfoil is lowered locally in a region of an extended opening of the number of openings which is closest to the platform and wherein the extended opening opens out in a trailing-edge portion disposed in the locally lowered surface of the platform,
wherein the lowering comprises an arrow-head between two wing regions that form a shape of a downstream-pointing arrow, and
wherein, in relation to a medium flowing around the airfoil, the arrow-head is arranged downstream of the trailing edge and the two wing regions on both sides of the airfoil begin upstream of the trailing edge.
6. The turbine blade or vane as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the two wing regions begin in a vicinity of the trailing edge.
7. The turbine blade or vane as claimed claim 5 ,
wherein the extended opening comprises a greater outflow cross section than other openings of the number of openings.
8. The turbine blade or vane as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the platform is coated.
9. The turbine blade or vane as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the turbine blade or vane is in the form of a guide vane or of a rotor blade.
