	%X In this paper a numerical technique is used to predict
the metal temperature of a gas turbine vane. The Rising combustor
exit temperatures in gas turbine engines necessitate active cooling for
the downstream turbine section to avoid thermal failure. This study is
performed the solution of external flow, internal convection, and
conduction within the metal vane. Also the trade-off between the
cooling performances in four different hole shapes and configurations
is performed. At first one of the commonly used cooling hole
geometry is investigated; cylindrical holes and then two other
configurations are simulated. The average temperature magnitude in
mid-plan section of each configuration is obtained and finally the
lower temperature value is selected such as best arrangement.
