Abstract

A turbine blade applicable to a gas turbine has a turbine blade body having film cooling holes, the interior space of which is partitioned into two cavities by a rib. Hollow inserts each having impingement holes are respectively arranged in the cavities to form cooling spaces therebetween. Communication is ensured between the cavities by bypass hole and slits, so that the impingement cooling is interrupted with respect to the prescribed side having a good heat transmission in the turbine blade body. A partition wall is further arranged between the rib and the insert arranged in the trailing-edge side, thus providing a separation between the cooling spaces respectively arranged in the rear side and front side. Thus, it is possible to noticeably reduce the amount of cooling air in the turbine blade body; and it is possible to reduce temperature differences entirely over the turbine blade body as small as possible.
