    Abstract: A gas turbine engine component (161;261) according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a wall (162E;261A) between first and second wall surfaces (261B,261C). The wall (261B,261C) defines at least one cooling passage (174;274;374;474;574;674;774) extending between an inlet (176;276) along the first wall surface (261B) and an outlet (178;278;378;478;578;678) along the second wall surface (261C). The outlet (178;278;378;478;578;678) has an upstream edge (278U;378U;478U;578U;678U;778U) and a downstream edge (278D,378D,478D,578D) with respect to a general direction of flow through the at least one cooling passage (174;274;374;474;574;674;774). The wall (162E;261A) defines a plurality of crenellation features (280;380;480;580;680;780) along at least the upstream edge (278U;378U;478U;578U;678U;778U). The upstream edge (278U;378U;478U;578U;678U;778U) has a first profile established by the plurality of crenellation features (280;380;480;580;680;780), and the downstream edge (278D,378D,478D,578D) has a second profile that differs from the first profile. A method of cooling is also disclosed.

    Abstract: An airfoil includes an airfoil section having an external wall and an internal wall (690). The internal wall (690) defines a first reference plane (663) extending in a spanwise direction and through a thickness of the internal wall (690). A first cavity (682) and a second cavity (684) are separated by the internal wall (690). A plurality of crossover passages (686) within the internal wall (690) connects the first cavity (682) to the second cavity (684). The plurality of crossover passages (686) are arranged such that the passage axis (687) of each of the plurality of cooling passages (686) intersects a surface of the second cavity (684). The plurality of crossover passages includes a first set of crossover passages and a second set of crossover passages positioned on opposite sides of the first reference plane, and at least one of the first set of crossover passages includes a helical geometry.
