A numerical investigation of heat transfer and clogging in smooth and ribbed cooling channels of the GEF9’s first rotor blade by Tohid Moghimi, Seyyed Amirreza Abdollahi, Esmaeil Poursaeidi, Seyyed Faramarz Ranjbar

“…So using rib in this type of blade is not feasible. By comparing the volume fractions of dust particles near the internal walls in the smooth cooling channels, the first and fourth channels have the highest and lowest likelihood of blockages, respectively and it shows that front channels should be designed with higher diameter.…”
