Abstract: A gas turbine engine component comprises a body having a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a radial span. One internal channel in the body provides an upstream supply pressure. Another internal channel in body receives the upstream supply pressure and provides a downstream supply pressure. At least one axial rib separates an internal area adjacent to the trailing edge into a plurality of individual cavities. At least one pressure regulating feature is located at an entrance to at least one individual cavity entrance to control downstream supply pressure to the trailing edge. Exits formed in the trailing edge communicate with an exit pressure. The rib and pressure regulating features cooperate such that the downstream supply pressure mimics the exit pressure along the radial span. A method of manufacturing a gas turbine engine component and a method of controlling flow in a gas turbine engine component are also disclosed.

Abstract: A component for a gas turbine engine includes an outer surface bounding a hot gas path of the gas turbine engine, and a cooling passage configured to deliver a cooling airflow therethrough. The cooling passage includes a passage wall located opposite the outer surface to define a component thickness and a plurality of protrusions located along the passage wall. Each protrusion has a protrusion height extending from the passage wall and a protrusion streamwise width extending along the passage wall in a flow direction of the cooling airflow through the cooling passage. One or more cooling holes extend from the passage wall to the outer surface. A cooling hole inlet of a cooling hole is located at the passage wall, in a protrusion wake region downstream of a protrusion of the plurality of protrusions.

Abstract: An airfoil includes pressure and suction side walls that extend in a chord-wise direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The pressure and suction side walls extend in a radial direction between a platform and a tip to provide an exterior airfoil surface. A cooling passage is arranged between the pressure and suction side walls and has a first passage along the pressure side wall and a second passage along the suction side wall. The first passage is configured to receive cooling air from a cooling air source radially inward of the platform. The second passage is configured to receive cooling air from the first passage near the tip. A root flag passage is configured to purge the cooling air from the second passage near the trailing edge.

Abstract: Airfoils for a gas turbine engines and gas turbine engines are described. The airfoils include an airfoil body extending in a radial direction from a first end to a second end, and axially from a leading edge to a trailing edge. A radially extending leading edge channel is formed in the leading edge of the airfoil body, having first and second channel walls that join at a channel base. A first leading edge impingement cavity is located within the airfoil body proximate the leading edge and is defined, in part, by the first channel wall. A leading edge feed cavity is arranged aft of the first leading edge impingement cavity to supply air into the first leading edge impingement cavity. A first leading edge impingement hole is formed in the first channel wall and angled toward a portion of the second channel wall.
