I believe you are on the right track by trying to use sessions. The
following works for me
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** persistent python
#+begin_src python :session :results silent
import types
#+end_src
#+begin_src python :session
types.FunctionType
#+end_src
#+resname:
: function
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Of if you grab the latest version of Org-mode from the git repo you can
set the session type in a headline property which would be more similar
to the file-wide behavior that you described.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
*** more persistent python
:PROPERTIES:
:session: default
:END:
#+begin_src python :results silent
import types
#+end_src
#+begin_src python
types.FunctionType
#+end_src
#+resname:
: function
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
please let me know if the above don't work for you, or if you are
encountering some other python-babel issues.

Thanks! I hope it lives up it's promise.
