  • Cooling system for actively cooling a turbine blade
    Patent number: 11255196
    Abstract: A cooling system for cooling a turbine blade with a cooling fluid via an internal flow passage formed in the turbine blade extending from an inlet to an outlet edge having a first passage section defining a first flow direction, a second passage section defining a second flow direction, a wall between the first and second passage section and a diverter, between the first and the second passage section. The wall in a region of the diverter forms a pier head which extends into the region of the first passage section and thereby reduces the flow cross section of the flow passage.
    Type: Grant
