    摘要: Trailing edge coolant flow passages 100 are generally sized and determined by the available width 102 of the trailing edge. In such circumstances it may be difficult to achieve the desired flow control due to the limitations upon casting and moulding of narrow coolant passages within the constraints of that width 102. The present invention provides flow control features 103, 203 which act to reduce the available cross-sectional area and so provide for flow control and normally like for like reduction in such flow. It will be understood that coolant flow is essentially a parasitic effect upon engine performance, thus reduced coolant flow for desired operational performance has benefits. Due to the reinforcing effect of the flow control features 103, 203 it is possible to also provide wider than previously acceptable coolant flow passages within trailing edges with the reduction in available area provided by the flow control features 103, 203.
