    Abstract: A cooling circuit to receive a cooling fluid includes at least one shaped cooling pin disposed in the cooling circuit. The at least one shaped cooling pin has a first end and a second end extending along an axis. The first end has a first curved surface defined by a minor diameter and the second end has a second curved surface defined by a major diameter. The first curved surface is to be upstream in the cooling fluid and the minor diameter is less than the major diameter.

    Abstract: A method of producing an abrasive tip for a turbine blade includes producing or obtaining a metal powder that is mixed with an abrasive ceramic powder and producing or obtaining a metallic mold that is in the shape of an airfoil. The metallic mold includes a hollow interior portion. The method further includes sealing the metal and ceramic powder mixture within the hollow interior portion of the metallic mold under vacuum and subjecting the sealed mold to a hot isostatic pressing process. The hot isostatic pressing process compacts and binds the metal and ceramic powder mixture together into a solid article in the shape of the airfoil. Still further, the method includes slicing the solid article into a plurality of airfoil-shaped slices and bonding one slice of the plurality of airfoil-shaped slices to a tip portion of a turbine blade.

    Abstract: An airfoil includes a leading edge and an opposing trailing edge. The airfoil includes a pressure sidewall and an opposing suction sidewall. A leading edge cavity is defined between the pressure sidewall and the suction sidewall. The leading edge cavity has a first end opposite the leading edge and a second end defined at a rib. The airfoil includes at least one pin structure defined in the leading edge cavity between the first end and the second end. The at least one pin structure includes a main body and a first branch. The main body is coupled to the second end and extends toward the first end. The first branch extends from the main body toward the first end.

    Abstract: Embodiments of a gas turbine engine component having sealed stress relief slots are provided, as are embodiments of a gas turbine engine containing such a component and embodiments of a method for fabricating such a component. In one embodiment, the gas turbine engine includes a core gas flow path, a secondary cooling flow path, and a turbine nozzle or other gas turbine engine component. The component includes, in turn, a component body through which the core gas flow path extends, a radially-extending wall projecting from the component body and into the secondary cooling flow path, and one or more stress relief slots formed in the radially-extending wall. The stress relief slots are filled with a high temperature sealing material, which impedes leakage between the second cooling and core gas flow paths and which fractures to alleviate thermomechanical stress within the radially-extending wall during operation of the gas turbine engine.
