Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM), in particular laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), enables the fabrication of more complex geometries compared to traditional manufacturing methods, such as casting or milling. This is beneficial in the development of cooling channels in high-temperature components of gas turbines (GT), as the thermal efficiency can be enhanced. A consequence of this manufacturing process is a high surface roughness (SR) influencing both pressure loss and heat transfer (HT). To gain a better understanding of forced convective HT on surfaces with AM-induced SR, the Surface-Roughness-Heat-Transfer (SRHT) has been built and employed in the Fluid Dynamics Laboratory of Siemens Energy AB.
It allows the investigation of HT phenomena on an upscaled SR using infrared (IR) thermography using air as a working fluid
