Abstract
Studies of film cooling, mass transfer, and flow visualization near the endwall of a turbine blade of a fixed cascade are reviewed. Comparison of the results confirms the complex structure of the flow, including the existence of a number of interacting vortices that dominate the region. The film cooling and mass transfer variations are in correspondence with the observed flow structure.
