Abstract: A vapor cooled gas turbine has a cooling system including a vapor supply port and a vapor recovery port, and the cooling system is formed so that vapor from the supply port is supplied to blades through a central supply passage in a rotor and the vapor having cooled the blades is recovered from the recovery port through a recovery passage spaced outwardly from the supply passage.

Abstract: A blade for a gas turbine has a leading edge portion which has an arc-shaped cross-section, and a maximum thickness portion of the blade is located within this arc. With this blade configuration, an abrupt acceleration of hot gas at the leading edge portion of the blade is restrained, so that the velocity of the hot gas at the blade surface can be made low. Therefore, the heat transfer coefficient from the hot gas to the blade wall is lowered, so that the amount of cooling air required to be passed through the interior of the blade can be reduced.

Abstract: A cooling structure for a turbine blade. Comprising a hollow-structured main body and a cooling medium discharging device located in the inner cavity of the hollow-structured main body and formed to discharge a cooling medium from the surface thereof, so that the cooling medium discharged from the cooling medium discharging device impinges against the inner surface of the main body to remove the heat from the same. The turbine blade further includes a projection formed on the inner surface of the leading edge of the main body, extending along the spanwise direction of the blade, and the cooling medium discharging device is formed to allow at least part of the cooling medium to directly impinge against proximal portions of the projection. With this arrangement, a turbine blade is provided which allows a small amount of cooling air to cool the turbine blade and its leading edge in particular with great effectiveness.
