A method for cooling a stator vane is provided, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a hollow stator vane having a high pressure and a standard pressure chamber disposed within the hollow stator vane, adjacent the leading edge of the airfoil, and a supply chamber, disposed within the hollow stator
A method for cooling a stator vane is provided, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a hollow stator vane having a high pressure and a standard pressure chamber disposed within the hollow stator vane, adjacent the leading edge of the airfoil, and a supply chamber, disposed within the hollow stator vane, aft of the high and standard pressure chambers, and forward of the trailing edge; the stator vane further includes first and second inlet apertures, and first and second exit apertures; the first inlet apertures extend between the high pressure chamber and the supply chamber, and the second inlet apertures extend between the standard pressure chamber and the supply chamber; the first exit apertures extend between the high pressure chamber and the exterior of the stator vane, and the second exit apertures extend between the standard pressure chamber and the exterior of the stator vane; (b) determining the magnitudes of the gas flow pressure gradient facing the stator vane, and the position of the gradient relative to the stator vane; (c) manipulating the inlet apertures or both the inlet and exit apertures such that the pressure in the high chamber is greater than the pressure in the standard pressure chamber for a given pressure in the supply chamber; and (d) positioning the high pressure chamber along the leading edge to oppose an external high pressure region acting on the stator vane.

[ We claim:] [1.] A method for cooling a stator vane, comprising the steps of:(a) providing a hollow stator vane having:a leading edge;a trailing edge;a high pressure chamber, disposed within said hollow airfoil, adjacent said leading edge;a standard pressure chamber, disposed within said hollow stator vane, adjacent said leading edge;a supply chamber, disposed within said hollow stator vane, aft of said high and standard pressure chambers, and forward of said trailing edge;a plurality of first inlet apertures, extending between said high pressure chamber and said supply chamber, said first inlet apertures having a first cross-sectional area;a plurality of second inlet apertures, extending between said standard pressure chamber and said supply chamber, said second inlet apertures having a second cross-sectional area;a plurality of first exit apertures, extending from said high pressure chamber to outside of said stator vane, each having a third cross-sectional area; anda plurality of second exit apertures, extending from said standard pressure chamber to outside of said stator vane, each having a fourth cross-sectional area;(b) determining a gas flow pressure gradient facing said stator vane, including said gradient's magnitude and position relative to said stator vane;(c) manipulating said first and second inlet and exit apertures such that pressure (P.sub.H) in said high chamber is greater than pressure (P.sub.ST) in said standard pressure chamber for a given pressure in said supply chamber (P.sub.SUP);(d) positioning said high pressure chamber along said leading edge to oppose a pressure spike in said gas flow pressure gradient. [11.] A stator vane, comprising:a leading edge;a trailing edge;a high pressure chamber, disposed within said hollow airfoil, adjacent said leading edge;a standard pressure chamber, disposed within said hollow stator vane, adjacent said leading edge;a supply chamber, disposed within said hollow stator vane, aft of said high and standard pressure chambers, and forward of said trailing edge;a plurality of first inlet apertures, extending between said high pressure chamber and said supply chamber, said first inlet apertures having a first cross-sectional area;a plurality of second inlet apertures, extending between said standard pressure chamber and said supply chamber, said second inlet apertures having a second cross-sectional area;a plurality of first exit apertures, extending from said high pressure chamber to outside of said stator vane, each having a third cross-sectional area; anda plurality of second exit apertures, extending from said standard pressure chamber to outside of said stator vane, each having a fourth cross-sectional area;wherein said cross-sectional areas of said first and second inlet apertures and said first and second exit apertures are such that gas pressure within said high pressure chamber is greater than gas pressure within said standard pressure chamber for a given gas pressure in said supply chamber. A stator vane according to claim 11, wherein said stator vane comprises a pair of standard pressure chambers, and said high pressure chamber is positioned between said standard pressure chambers. A stator vane according to claim 12, further comprising a plurality of high pressure chambers. A stator vane according to claim 13, wherein said cross-sectional area of said first inlet apertures is greater than that of said second inlet apertures. A stator vane according to claim 14, wherein said cross-sectional area of said first exit apertures is less than that of said second inlet apertures.
