An interaction model between the fluid and solid media is generally required in turbine configurations but remains a difficult issue. A coupling procedure between a Navier-Stokes code and a conduction solver is therefore the only way to achieve heat transfer prediction in all flow situation. The objective of this work is to present such a procedure , which has been developed by Snecma and based on a Finite Volume Navier- Stokes code and a commercial Finite Element solver.
