To determine experimentally the flow structure in the compressor cone space for difference turbine blade coolant flow rates. To determine the parameters controlling the windage heating of the coolant. To determine the heat transfer coefficients on the cone surface. To seek possible ways of reducing windage heating of the coolant.
