... on the suction surface via the pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) technique. The film cooling effectiveness obtained by the PSP technique is coupled with the transient liquid crystal (TLC) technique to determine the heat transfer coefficient. This combination of techniques reduces the time required...

..., and one broken vane is upstream in the second passage. Detailed heat transfer distributions were obtained on all surfaces within the flow passages by using a transient liquid crystal method. Results show that including the semi-circular vane in the turning region enhanced the overall heat transfer...
