Abstract: An airfoil comprises one or more internal cooling circuits. The cooling circuits can be fed with a flow of cooling fluid from one or more cooling air inlet passages in fluid communication with the cooling circuits. The cooling circuits can further comprise a leading edge cooling circuit defined by a supply passage, a pin bank passage divided into one or more sub-circuits by pin banks disposed within the pin bank passage, and at least first and second cooling passages. The cooling circuits can provide the cooling fluid flow within the airfoil to cool the airfoil, as well as provide a cooling fluid to a plurality of film holes to create a cooling film on the external surface of the airfoil.

Abstract: An engine component assembly includes a first engine component having a hot surface in thermal communication with a hot combustion gas flow and a cooling surface, and a second engine component having a first surface in fluid communication with a cooling fluid flow and a second surface spaced from the cooling surface to define a space. A cooling aperture extends through the second engine component. A cooling feature extends from the cooling surface of the first engine component, and is oriented relative to the cooling aperture such that the cooling fluid flow is orthogonal and non-orthogonal to different portions of the cooling feature.

Abstract: An engine comprises an airfoil having at least one internal cooling circuit extending radially from the longitudinal axis of the engine. The cooling circuit is defined by at least one rib extending across an interior of the airfoil and at least one internal wall defining an internal passage. The internal wall further defines one or more near wall cooling passages. A thermal stress reduction structure is provided between the rib and the internal wall, providing efficient cooling at a junction between the rib and the internal wall.

Abstract: A turbine component includes a component wall with inner and outer surfaces wherein a diffuser hole passes through the component wall between the inner surface and the outer surface. The diffuser hole has a hole axis and includes: a metering section extending from an inlet at the inner surface to a junction plane between the inner and outer surfaces; and a diffuser section extending from the junction plane to an outlet at the outer surface, and increasing in flow area from the junction plane to the outlet, the diffuser section having an upstream portion defining a first area ratio and a downstream portion defining a second area ratio different from the first area ratio.

Abstract: An engine component for a gas turbine engine includes a film-cooled recess comprising a contoured portion defining a step. A hot surface facing hot combustion gas and a cooling surface facing a cooling fluid flow are fluidly coupled by a passage through the engine component. The passage further comprises an inlet in the cooling surface and an outlet in the step. The inlet, passage and outlet are oriented such that the cooling fluid flowing through the passage and exiting the outlet diffuses within the contoured portion prevents premature mixing out with the hot fluid flow.

Abstract: An engine component assembly includes a first engine component having a hot surface in thermal communication with a hot combustion gas flow and a cooling surface with at least one cavity. A second engine component is spaced from the cooling surface, and includes at least one cooling aperture. The cooling aperture is arranged such that cooling fluid impinges on the cooling surface at an angle.
