SERPENTINE COOLING CIRCUIT AND METHOD FOR COOLING A GAS TURBINE PART
摘要
A compact heat exchanger for providing coolant gas flow through a gas turbine component is provided. The compact heat exchanger reduces internal pressure losses through the compact heat exchanger. The compact heat exchanger has at least one inlet through which a coolant gas may enter, a circuit channel in fluid communication with the at least one inlet, and at least one outlet in fluid communication with the circuit channel through which the coolant gas may- exit the circuit channel. The circuit channel is formed from superimposition of a plurality of alternating serpentine circuits, where at least one crossover of the circuit channel has a flow stabilizer that is formed in the channel and reduces internal pressure losses in the circuit channel.
