Local heat transfer coefficients on a flat plate surface downstream a row of cylindrical ejection holes were investigated. The parameters blowing angle, hole pitch, blowing rate, and density ratio were varied over a wide range, emphasizing engine relevant conditions. A high-resolution IR-thermography technique was used for measuring surface temperature fields. Local heat transfer coefficients were obtained from a Finite Element analysis. IR-determined surface temperatures and backside temperatures of the cooled test plate measured with thermocouples were applied as boundary conditions in this heat flux computation. The superposition approach was employed to obtain the heat transfer coefficient based on the difference between actual wall temperatures and adiabatic wall temperatures in the presence of film cooling. The data are given for an engine relevant density ratio of 1.8. Therefore, heat transfer results with different wall temperature conditions and adiabatic film cooling effectiveness results for identical flow situations (i.e., constant density ratios) were combined. Characteristic surface patterns of the locally resolved heat transfer coefficients are recognized and quantified as the different ejection parameters are changed. The detailed results are used to discuss the specific local heat transfer behavior in the presence of film cooling. They also provide a base of surface data essential for the validation of the heat transfer capabilities of CFD codes in discrete hole film cooling.
