The paper describes measurements of adiabatic wall temperature downstream of discrete hole injection slots for a range of parameters relevant to gas turbine practice. The influence of open-area-ratio, slot-lip-length and slot-lip-thickness is determined for tangential holes and a range of mass velocity ratios, 0.3 < m < 2.0, and downstream distances up to 40 equivalent slot heights; similar measurements are reported downstream of three-dimensional splash cooling geometries. In all, 13 different three-dimensional configurations are investigated and permit conclusions to be drawn as to the significance of the parameters investigated. The measurements clearly demonstrate the need for a thin and long slot lip and for a large value of open area ratio.
