Abstract: A hot gas path component includes a substrate having an outer surface and an inner surface. The inner surface defines an interior space. The outer surface defines a pressure side surface and a suction side surface. The pressure and suction side surfaces are joined together at a leading edge and at a trailing edge. A first cooling passage is formed in the suction side surface of the substrate. It is coupled in flow communication to the interior space. A second cooling passage, separate from the first cooling passage, is formed in the pressure side surface. The second cooling passage is coupled in flow communication to the interior space. A cover is disposed over at least a portion of the first and second cooling passages. The interior space channels a cooling fluid to the first and second cooling passages, which channel the cooling fluid therethrough to remove heat from the component.

Abstract: A cooled structure of a gas turbine engine has a main body with a leading edge, a trailing edge, a first side portion, a second side portion, and a cavity. A first set of cooling air micro-channels extends from the cavity and is arranged along the first side portion. A second set of cooling air micro-channels extends from the cavity and is arranged along the second side portion. The first and second set of cooling air micro-channels have turning portions positioned adjacent each other and interwoven exhaust ends originating from each opposing side micro-channel. Each interwoven exhaust end extends around the opposing turning portion and is configured to exhaust cooling air from a plurality of exhaust ports positioned generally radially outward from the turning portions.

Abstract: A host gas flow path component includes a body including a leading edge, a trailing edge, a first side edge, a second side edge, and a pair of opposed lateral sides. A first lateral side is configured to interface with a cavity having a cooling fluid. The hot gas flow path component includes a supply channel disposed within the body and extending from the cavity to adjacent the leading edge or the trailing edge. The hot gas flow path component includes a channel disposed within the body adjacent the trailing edge or the leading edge. The channel extends across the body in a direction from the first side edge toward the second side edge. The channel is configured to receive the cooling fluid from the cavity to cool the trailing edge or the leading edge via an intermediate channel extending between the supply channel and the channel.
