Cutback squealer tip trailing edge cooling performance
Abstract The trailing edge tip region has always been the most vulnerable part of high-pressure turbine blade. The requirements for both aerodynamic efficiency and cooling effectiveness make it a challenging task in turbine blade cooling design. A closely combined experimental and CFD effort, specifically focusing on trailing edge region, is reported
