Abstract:
A gas turbine engine component has an airfoil extending radially inwardly of an outer platform to an inner platform. A central passage is formed within the airfoil and has an inlet end for receiving cooling air. An outlet end in the inner platform delivers cooling air to a downstream use. The airfoil has a suction wall and a pressure wall, and extends in an axial direction from a leading edge to a trailing edge. A suction skin core is between the central passage and the suction wall. A pressure skin core is between the central passage and the pressure wall.
