In this study, numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of jet array impingement cooling in the quasi-leading-edge channel of gas turbine blades. The influence laws of Reynolds number (Re, 10,000 to 50,000), hole diameter-to-impingement spacing ratio (d/H, 0.5 to 0.9), hole spacing-to-impingement spacing ratio (S/H, 2 to 6), and Prandtl number (Pr, 0.690 to 0.968) on flow performance, heat transfer performance, and comprehensive thermal performance were examined, and the corresponding empirical correlations were fitted. The results show that increasing the d/H and reducing the S/H can effectively reduce the pressure loss coefficient in the quasi-leading-edge channel. Increasing the Re, reducing the d/H, and increasing the S/H can effectively enhance the heat transfer effect of the target wall. When d/H = 0.6 at lower Reynolds numbers and S/H = 5 at higher Reynolds numbers, the comprehensive thermodynamic coefficient reaches its maximum values. The average Nusselt numbers and comprehensive thermal coefficients of the quasi-leading-edge channel for steam cooling are both higher than those for air cooling. The pressure loss coefficient of the quasi-leading-edge channel is most sensitive to the change in d/H but is not sensitive to the change in Re. The average Nusselt number of the quasi-leading-edge channel is most sensitive to the change in Re and is least sensitive to the change in Pr. The comprehensive thermal coefficient of the quasi-leading-edge channel is most sensitive to the change in Re. The findings may provide a reference for the design of a steam-cooling structure in the leading edge channel of high-temperature turbine blades.
