Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes axial flow and radial flow cooling circuits defined within an airfoil body. A baffle disposed in spaced relation to an inner surface of the airfoil has a plurality of impingement cooling holes configured to direct a cooling fluid at an inner surface of the airfoil body and an axial extent from the leading edge defined by an aft wall, with the axial extent being substantially constant between the inner and outer end walls and defined by a plane perpendicular to an engine axis. A first radially-extending rib is angled with respect to the baffle to define a first passage between the first rib and the baffle that tapers in cross-sectional area between the inner end wall and the outer end wall, becoming larger in cross-sectional area in a direction of cooling fluid flow through the first passage.

Abstract: An exemplary gas turbine engine includes a turbine section positioned about an engine central longitudinal axis. The turbine section includes a component with a platform providing a lip, a rail extending radially from the platform and at an axial location spaced from an outer axial extension of the lip. An inner face of the rail and a surface of the platform at least partially provide a cavity. At least one opening extends from the inner face to an outer face of the rail opposite the inner face to provide fluid communication from the cavity to the lip.
