Due to the large bending of turbine blades, there is strong three-dimensional flow in cascade channel, the three-dimensional flow at the endwall of blades generates extremely complex heat transfer characteristics. The design concept of high heat load turbine blades, particularly comprehensive optimization of flow and heat transfer at the endwall, has gained increasing attention. In this paper, we have developed a three-dimensional endwall parameterized modeling platform based on Body-Fitting Coordinates and introduced a novel approach for streamwise direction and normal direction concerning endwall profile construction. The endwall modeling was optimized using Genetic Algorithm to obtain a modified one with low heat transfer level on the premise that the aerodynamic loss is not increased. The analysis indicates that the reduction of aerodynamic loss with the modified endwall is relatively marginal, whereas the heat transfer intensity on the endwall surface experiences a significant decrease. Additionally, employing an endwall model can effectively mitigate the lateral pressure gradient in the cascade channel, which exerts a pronounced influence on suppressing secondary vortex development in the cascade.
