• Measurements of heat transfer coefficient ( h) are presented for rows of round holes at streamwise angles of 30°, 60° and 90° with a short but engine representative hole length ( L/ D = 4). The study began with a single row of holes with pitch-to-diameter ratios of 3 and 6, followed by two inline and staggered rows for each hole spacing and streamwise inclination, which amount to 105 different test cases in addition to the 21 test cases presented on the single hole [C.H.N. Yuen, R.F. Martinez-Botas, Film cooling characteristics of a single round hole at various angles in a crossflow: Part I. Effectiveness, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer, in press; C.H.N. Yuen, R.F. Martinez-Botas, Film cooling characteristics of a single round hole at various angles in a crossflow: Part II. Heat transfer coefficients, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer, in press]. The present investigation is a continuation of the previous work [Yuen and Martinez-Botas, Parts I and II, in press] with the same test facility, operating conditions (freestream Reynolds number, Re D of 8563, and blowing ratio, 0.33 ⩽ M ⩽ 2), and measurement technique of liquid crystal thermography and the steady-state heat transfer method, therefore the results presented in the form of h/ h 0, which is the ratio of heat transfer coefficient with film cooling to that without, are directly comparable. Both local values and laterally averaged ones are presented, the latter refers to the averaged value across the central hole. The corresponding measurements of effectiveness for the rows of holes are presented in a companion paper [C.H.N. Yuen, R.F. Martinez-Botas, Film cooling characteristics of rows of round holes at various angles in a crossflow: Part I. Effectiveness, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer, submitted for publication]. The low effectiveness observed with the 90° holes in the companion paper [Yuen and Martinez-Botas, submitted for publication] and the relatively large heat transfer coefficient presented here, suggest that the normal injection should only be used in situations where shallower holes are not feasible. The combined performance of effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient suggests that the two inline rows are likely to be advantageous in the film cooling of turbine blades with good coverage per unit mass flow of cooling air and lower thermal stresses due to the smaller heat load.
