TRAILING EDGE OR TIP FLAG ANTIFLOW SEPARATION

摘要

An airfoil includes a leading edge, a trailing edge region, a suction surface, a pressure surface, a cooling passageway, and a column of flow separators. The suction surface and the pressure surface both extend axially between the leading edge and the trailing edge region, as well as radially from a root section of the airfoil to a tip section of the airfoil to define a central cavity of the airfoil. The cooling passageway is located within the central cavity at the trailing edge region. The column of flow separators is located in the cooling passageway adjacent the trailing edge and includes a first flow separator having a first longitudinal axis and a second flow separator having a second longitudinal axis. The first longitudinal axis is offset at an angle with respect to the first longitudinal axis.
