Abstract:
A gas turbine engine component includes a structure having a wall that provides an exterior surface. A first cooling passage is arranged adjacent to and interiorly of the wall. A second cooling passage is arranged in the wall and provides a first fluid flow direction. A resupply channel is arranged in the wall and is fluidly interconnected to the second cooling passage. A resupply hole fluidly interconnects the first cooling passage and the resupply channel. The resupply channel is transverse relative to the second cooling passage to provide a second fluid flow direction that extends from the resupply hole to the second cooling passage.
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine component includes a structure having a cooling passage providing upstream and downstream portions separated from one another by an inner wall and fluidly connected by a bend. The downstream portion includes an outer wall opposite the inner wall to provide a downstream region extending between the inner and outer walls. A turbulence promoter extends from the outer wall adjacent to the bend in the downstream portion. The turbulence promoter is absent from a stagnation region adjoining the inner wall adjacent to the bend in the downstream portion
Abstract:
An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes spaced apart pressure and suction walls joined at leading and trailing edges to provide an airfoil. Intermediate walls interconnect the pressure and suction walls to provide cooling passageways. The cooing passageways have interior pressure and suction surfaces that are respectively provided on the pressure and suction walls. Trip strips include a chevron-shaped trip strip that is provided on at least one of the interior pressure and suction surfaces.
