perature equals the flow exit temperature. The effects of non-thermal equilibrium were investigated a long time ago (e.g. [6]), but the use of this analysis requires the knowledge of a volumetric heat transfer coefficient to describe the heat exchange between solid matrix and fluid flow within the porous wall. First experimental data obtained from tests by adjusting measured temperatures to non-thermal equilibrium models were used in [7] and [8] examining the effects of boundary conditions and the influence of wall thermal effectiveness on the turbulent boundary layer. The progress in modelling heat transfer and fluid flow processes in porous media as e.g. packed beds in the last decades (e.g. [9–12]) provides an increasing background for non-thermal equilibrium investigations. Thereby the models are supported by experimental investigations, leading to databases and correlations for the needed exchange coefficients (e.g. [13–17]) for metal foams, sintered porous materials and ceramic foams among others. Porous ceramics have the advantage, that they can withstand high temperatures and therefore allow for reduction in needed transpiration flows in cooling applications. This is especially important for combustion chamber cooling, since reduced coolant flows allow reductions in pollutant emissions in gas turbines. Due to the low thermal conductivity of ceramic materials simple backside convective cooling will lead to high temperature gradients and in case of transpiration cooling the non-thermal equilibrium effects will be pronounced. On the other side, combined cooling concepts using low transpiration flows and enhanced coolant side convection seem to be very promising. It is the aim of this study to analyse this combination. Although many publications are available on transpiration cooling analysis, the combination with intense backside convection (e.g. with a high coolant cross flow or using heat transfer enhancement devices) or multi-layered porous walls has not been described to the same extend. Numerical models for this case were developed in [3, 28]. The present approach will draw from existing models and analysis and is thought to present these combined effects in a simple and illustrative manner. With this, it might be used in preliminary design concept analysis and parameter studies without the need for discrete numerical approaches.

Abstract A simple analysis is described addressing the effect of simultaneous cooling from the back side and from a transpiration flow through a porous wall. The analysis draws from existing approaches and uses simplified formulations for the boundary conditions. Therewith expressions for the non-thermal equilibrium situation and for the overall cooling effectiveness are derived. These parameters are used to estimate the effect of enhanced cooling side heat transfer in combination with transpiration flows. The analysis is extended to situations with two combined layers of porous transpiration cooled materials.
