    Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine is configured to extend in a radial direction relative to an engine axis from an inner diameter to an outer diameter. The airfoil comprises a body having a base disposed at the inner diameter, a tip disposed at the outer diameter, a leading edge, a trailing edge, and pressure and suction side walls extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge and between the base and the tip. The body defines an interior cavity. A first wall is disposed in the interior cavity, extends radially, and adjoins the pressure side wall and the suction side wall to form a first cooling channel. A first hole through the first wall connects the first cooling channel to a second cooling channel. The first hole has a profile that tapers inward toward the base.
