    Abstract: An airfoil vane includes an airfoil section including an outer wall that defines an internal cavity; and a baffle situated in the internal cavity, the baffle including a baffle wall that defines a central cavity having a leading end and a trailing end corresponding to a leading end and a trailing end of the airfoil section, and a tail extending from the baffle wall, the tail including at least one feature configured to disturb an airflow surrounding the tail. A baffle for the airfoil vane assembly and a method of assembling a ceramic matrix composite airfoil vane are also disclosed.

    Abstract: An internally cooled component for a gas turbine engine includes a component having one or more exterior walls defining an internal component cavity configured for a cooling airflow to flow therethrough. An internal component rib extends into the internal component cavity from the one or more exterior walls. An insert is positioned in the internal component cavity, and a flow discourager is positioned at the insert and is configured to prevent the cooling airflow from flowing past the internal component rib.

    Abstract: An airfoil includes a ceramic airfoil that defines a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side, a suction side, a first radial end, and a second radial end. The ceramic airfoil section has an internal cavity and a rib that divides the internal cavity into a first radial passage and a second radial passage. The first radial passage is open at both the first radial end and the second radial end, and the second radial passage is open at least at the second radial end. A cooling passage circuit includes a first radial leg through the first radial passage, a second radial leg though the second radial passage, and a turn leg outside of the internal cavity at the second radial end. The turn leg connects the first radial leg and the second radial leg.

    Abstract: Airfoils, shells, and spars are provided. The airfoils include a shell having a first channel and a first engagement element arranged along the first channel and a spar having a second channel and a second engagement element arranged along the second channel and the spar defines an inner cavity. A connector is configured to be installed between and connect the shell and the spar to allow for thermal growth of the shell relative to the spar. The connector has first and second engageable portions connected by a link. The first engageable portion is configured to engage with the shell and the second engageable portion is configured to engage with the spar. When assembled, an outer cavity is formed between the spar and the shell, and the first and second engagement elements and the first and second engageable portions are configured to define an axial flow path through the outer cavity.
