Abstract: A numerical study is conducted to investigate the effect of the lateral diffusion angle of fan-shaped holes on the blade film cooling effectiveness at the suction and pressure surfaces. The baseline fan geometry has a 20° lateral diffusion and 10° laidback expansion. Film cooling effectiveness for asymmetrical fan-shaped holes is studied at different blowing ratios (from 0.44 to 2.67). Under the same total lateral diffusion angle of fan-shaped holes, the coolant jet penetration from the asymmetrical fan-shaped holes is equal to that from baseline fan geometry, but the film coverage in lateral direction is improved a little, which is obvious at the higher blowing ratio. And the asymmetrical fan-shaped holes are suitable to be applied to the pressure surface of turbine blade
