Abstract
A turbine blade includes an airfoil portion having a hollow portion extending along the blade height direction and film cooling holes arranged along the blade height direction, and an insert disposed in the hollow portion along the blade height direction and having impingement cooling holes. The insert includes a first high-density opening region having a higher density of the impingement cooling holes than in other surface regions of the insert. The geometric center of the first high-density opening region is positioned on the suction side of the airfoil portion in the leading-edge-to-trailing-edge direction and on the outer side of the midpoint of the airfoil portion in the blade height direction. The film cooling holes includes upstream film cooling holes disposed in the suction surface of the airfoil portion at a position corresponding to the first high-density opening region or at a position closer to a leading edge than the position.
