<p>This invention relates to heat transfer passage (102) within a component (100) and a component having such a heat transfer passage. The passage (102) comprises opposing side walls (112), a base (110) extending between said side walls and one or more upstanding formations (122) depending from said base between said side walls. The passage is arranged to receive a heat transfer fluid flow during use and the upstanding formation (122) is arranged to induce separation of a boundary layer portion of said heat transfer fluid flow from the base in use. The upstanding formation (122) comprises a projection portion (126) which is spaced from said opposing side walls (112). Such upstanding formations are typically referred to as turbulators.</p> |
