AB - Effect of film hole diameter to discharge coefficients and film cooling effectiveness of the lamilloy were experimentally investigated at the blowing ratios ranging from 0.6 to 2.5. Generally, the cooling effectiveness on the test surface is increased with the film hole diameters and blowing ratios increasing, and the variation tendency along the streamwise through the centerline of film holes also keeps consistent. In the upstream, all configurations have a relatively lower cooling effectiveness, however, with the flows to the downstream, cooling effectiveness grows gradually, and the peak values of effectiveness appeared periodically, the position matches the film hole positions. Besides, between the film holes, fluctuation exists simultaneously. By comparison, the cooling effectiveness and discharge coefficients are both increased with the blowing ratio with same film hole diameters, Moreover, under the same blowing ratios, the cooling effectiveness and discharge coefficients are getting higher when hole diameters increase.
