    Abstract: A gas turbine engine component that has a web provided with an array of cooling holes distributed with respect to a first direction, wherein the cooling holes have a cross-sectional shape that varies along the first direction. The component may be configured so that the first direction corresponds to a loading distribution of the component which increases along the first direction from a low loading position to a high loading position.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of manufacturing a component of a gas turbine engine, comprising: providing a precursor component having at least one internal cooling passage configured to receive a flow of cooling air therethrough; estimating a predicted temperature profile for the component based on one or more operating parameters of the gas turbine engine, the predicted temperature profile indicating a predicted operating temperature of at least one gas-washed surface of the component; determining a thermal barrier coating (TBC) configuration for the component based on the predicted temperature profile, comprising setting a TBC thickness to be below a threshold thickness in a region of the at least one gas-washed surface of the component based on the predicted operating temperature of the at least one gas-washed surface of the component exceeding a threshold temperature; and applying a TBC to the precursor component according to the TBC configuration.
