Turbine shroud asymmetrical cooling elements

Abstract

A turbine shroud assembly asymmetrical cooling elementsuch as a shroud segmentor a baffle includes an arcuate panel (100). The panel (100) has a plurality of cooling apertures (78) extending through the panel (100) and an axially extending midline (112) of the panel (100) parallel to an axis of rotation (102) of the arcuate panel (100). A symmetric portion (110) of the cooling apertures (78) have a symmetrical density of aperture inlets (120) that is symmetric with respect to the axially extending midline (112). An asymmetric portion (116) of the cooling apertures (78) have an asymmetrical density of aperture inlets (120) that is asymmetric with respect to the axially extending midline (112). One exemplary cooling element includes a high density area (130) of the cooling apertures (78) in the asymmetric portion (116) having a higher density of aperture inlets (120) than in the symmetric portion (110). A low density area (132) of the cooling apertures (78 and 80) in the asymmetric portion (116) has a lower density of aperture inlets (120) than in the symmetric portion (110) of the cooling apertures (78).
