The aviation market is expected to achieve a compound annual growth rate of 3% over the forecast period 2019 to 2024. The main objective of this project is to increase the cooling effectiveness of the transply effusion cooling system using matrix fins. The geometric parameters of the matrix fin are optimised using MATLAB and these are used to design the matrix fin within the effusion cooling system. The design of the effusion cooling system was taken from the standard designs which are currently in use. The cooling effectiveness of the matrix fin based transply effusion cooling system was calculated using the temperature values that are obtained from the analysis for different conditions of inlet and outlet fluid temperature. For hot gas inlet temperature 500K the average temperature of the cooling system was 356.011K. Similar analysis is conducted on the effusion cooling system without the matrix fin design with inlet fluid temperature 500K the average temperature of the cooling system was 384.966K. To see the effect of increase in the temperature of the combustion chamber the hot fluid inlet temperature is increased to 850K the average temperature of cooling system was357.612K. The outcome of the analysis was that the cooling system with the matrix fins had better cooling effectiveness than the cooling system without the matrix fins.
