Turbine vane cooling arrangement
A vane includes a pair of airfoils having a plurality of film cooling holes that extend through an exterior surface of the airfoils, the plurality of film cooling holes including at least a first subset of film cooling holes, wherein the first subset of film cooling holes break through the exterior surface at geometric coordinates set forth herein. Each of the geometric coordinates is measured from a reference point on a leading edge rail of a platform of the vane.
1. A vane comprising:
a pair of airfoils having a plurality of film cooling holes that extend through an exterior surface of said airfoils, the plurality of film cooling holes including at least a first subset of film cooling holes, wherein said first subset of film cooling holes break through said exterior surface at geometric coordinates in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z as set forth in Table 1, wherein each of said geometric coordinates is measured from a reference point on a leading edge rail of a platform of the vane.
2. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein said Cartesian coordinate values of Table 1 are expressed in inches.
3. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein said reference point includes a pin hole of said platform.
4. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein said plurality of film cooling holes are spaced along a span of said airfoil body in multiple collinearly aligned rows.
5. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first subset of film cooling holes are disposed on a pressure side filet of said airfoil body.
6. The vane as recited in claim 5 , further comprising at least a second subset of film cooling holes disposed on a pressure side, a suction side and a leading edge of said airfoil body.
7. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein the airfoils extend between inner and outer platforms, the inner and outer platforms include a second plurality of film cooling holes that extend through an exterior surface of said platforms.
8. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of film cooling holes included in the first subset of film cooling holes are the only cooling holes disposed within a radially outward fileted region of a pressure side of each airfoil.
9. The vane as recited in claim 1 , wherein the vane is a first turbine stage vane.
10. A method for cooling a vane doublet, comprising:
generating a film cooling layer across a pressure side filet of each airfoil in the vane doublet by passing air through a plurality of film cooling holes that extend through an exterior surface of said airfoils, the plurality of film cooling holes including at least a first subset of film cooling holes, wherein said first subset of film cooling holes break through said exterior surface at geometric coordinates in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z as set forth in Table 1, wherein each of said geometric coordinates is measured from a reference point on a leading edge rail of a platform of the vane.
11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising generating a film cooling layer across at least one of a pressure side, a suction side and a leading edge of said airfoil body by passing air through a plurality of film cooling holes disposed across the at least one of the pressure side, the suction side and the leading edge.
