    Abstract: A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) component and method of fabrication including a plurality of counterflow elongated functional features. The CMC component includes a plurality of longitudinally extending ceramic matrix composite plies forming a densified body and a plurality of elongated functional features formed therein the densified body. Each of the plurality of functional features is configured longitudinally extending and in alignment with the plurality of ceramic matrix composite plies. Each of the plurality of elongated functional features includes an inlet configured in cross-ply configuration. The plurality of elongated functional features are configured to provide a flow of fluid from a fluid source to an exterior of the ceramic matrix composite component. The plurality of functional features are configured in alternating flow configuration.

    Abstract: Methods of forming a cooling passage on a turbine component having a component wall with an internal surface and an external surface, are disclosed. An opening is formed passing through the component wall and fluidly connecting the internal and external surfaces. The opening includes a metering section extending from the internal surface to a metering end, and a diffuser area extending from the metering end to the external surface. A preformed cap element is added to close a portion of the diffuser area to form the cooling passage with a diffusion section extending from the metering end to the external surface. The preformed metal cap element includes a projection extending internally of the external surface and into the diffusion area to define an internally facing section of the diffusion section. The cooling passage extends through the component wall and fluidly connects the internal surface and the external surface.

    Abstract: An assembly comprises a cooling chamber disposed inside an airfoil of a turbine assembly. The cooling chamber directs cooling air inside the airfoil. The assembly comprises an impingement hole fluidly coupled with the cooling chamber. The impingement hole directs at least some of the cooling air out of the cooling chamber. A double impingement slot cap assembly forms a cover over the impingement hole. The double impingement slot cap assembly directs the cooling air exiting the cooling chamber in the airfoil through the impingement hole along one or more outer surfaces of the airfoil.

    Abstract: A cooling assembly includes a coolant chamber disposed inside an airfoil of a turbine assembly that directs coolant inside the airfoil. The airfoil extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge along an axial length of the airfoil. Inlet cooling channels are fluidly coupled with the coolant chamber and direct the coolant in a direction toward a trailing edge chamber of the airfoil. The trailing edge chamber is fluidly coupled with at least one inlet cooling channel. The trailing edge chamber is disposed at the trailing edge of the airfoil and includes an inner surface. The inlet cooling channels direct at least a portion of the coolant in a direction toward the inner surface of the trailing edge chamber. One or more outlet cooling channels direct at least a portion of the coolant in one or more directions away from the trailing edge chamber.
