Abstract:
Airfoils having a leading edge and a trailing edge, with a plurality of cavities therein including a leading edge hybrid cavity extending in a radial direction between a first end and a second end of the airfoil body along the leading edge. An airfoil side hybrid cavity is located toward the trailing edge relative to the leading edge hybrid cavity and positioned adjacent a side wall of the airfoil body. The airfoil side hybrid cavity extends in a radial direction between the first end and the second end and a divider rib extends radially between the first end and the second end along the side wall of the airfoil between the airfoil side hybrid cavity and the leading edge hybrid cavity. At least one first cross-over hole is formed within the divider rib to fluidly connect the airfoil side hybrid cavity to the leading edge hybrid cavity.
