Due to the requirement for enhanced cooling technologies on modern gas turbine engines, advanced research and development has had to take place in field of thermal engineering.  Among the gas turbine cooling technologies, impingement jet cooling is one of the most effective in terms of cooling effectiveness, manufacturability and cost. 

The chapters contained in this book describe research on state-of-the-art and advanced cooling technologies that have been developed, or that are being researched, with a variety of approaches from theoretical, experimental, and CFD studies.  The authors of the chapters have been selected from some of the most active researchers and scientists on the subject.  This is the first to book published on the topics of gas turbines and heat transfer to focus on impingement cooling alone.
