Numerical study on the effect of rim seal slot filleting on turbine endwall cooling

open access: yesAIP Advances
In this study, the effect of rim seal slot filleting on turbine endwall film cooling performance is numerically investigated. For comparison with the baseline case, five different fillet radius and width (R/W) ratios are adopted, i.e., R/W = 1.25, 2.5, 3.
