Turbine blade and gas turbine

Abstract

A turbine blade and a gas turbine are provided in which the velocity of cooling fluid at the inlet of a pin fin region is improved so that the cooling performance at the trailing edge of the turbine blade can be improved. It includes an airfoil; a supply channel extending through the interior of the airfoil in the span direction, through which cooling fluid flows; a pin fin channel extending from the supply channel along the center line of the airfoil toward the trailing edge of the airfoil and opening at the trailing edge to the exterior of the airfoil; a plurality of gap pin fins projecting from a pair of opposing inner walls that constitute the pin fin channel at a region at the supply channel side of the pin fin channel and forming a gap therebetween extending in the span direction; pin fins connecting the pair of opposing inner walls at a region at the trailing edge side of the pin fin channel; and an insertion portion disposed in the gap to decrease the area of the channel of the cooling fluid at the region at the supply channel side of the pin fin channel.
