Cooling concept for turbine blades or vanes

A turbine assembly with a hollow aerofoil having a main cavity with an impingement tube, insertable inside the main cavity for impingement cooling of an inner surface of the main cavity, and a platform at a radial end of the hollow aerofoil, and a cooling chamber for cooling the platform arranged relative to the hollow aerofoil on an opposed site of the platform. The cooling chamber is limited at a first radial end by a wall segment of the platform and at an opposed radial second end from a cover plate. The impingement tube extends in span wise direction through the cooling chamber from the platform to the cover plate and restricts a sub-cavity of the main cavity. The wall segment includes an entry aperture for a cooling medium to enter from the cooling chamber of the platform into the sub-cavity of the hollow aerofoil.

Method and device for adjusting the mass flow rate of a gas stream

The invention relates to a method and device for controlling the mass flow rate of a sonic gas stream in a pipe. To carry out the above operation, an electric discharge is applied inside the pipe so as to create a plasma in the pipe. The electric discharge allows for an increase in the temperature of the gas stream and thus a variation in the mass flow rate or the pressure of the gas stream. By periodically emitting the electric discharge, a pulsed or adjustable gas jet is obtained at the outlet of the device. The gas jet can then be used to control a main stream.
