COOLED ROTOR BLADE

摘要

COOLED ROTOR BLADE A cooled rotor blade is constructed having a cooling passage extending from the root and through the airfoil shaped section in a serpentine fashion, making several passes between the bottom and top thereof; a plurality of openings connect said cooling passage to the trailing edge; a plurality of compartments are formed lengthwise behind the leading edge of the blade; said compartments having openings extending through to the exterior forward portion of the blade; and sized openings connect the cooling passage to each of the compartments to control the pressure in each compartment.
