Default RE: Is this a big enough cooling hole?

Gentlemen, when you increase the exit area, the speed of the inlet air increases. What happens is that when the entrance is the same as the exit, you will reach a particular speed when the pressure inside will increase. This increased resistance keeps the inlet speed down to the exit speed. Increasing the exit area, will decrease the pressure and increase the inlet speed.
