    Abstract: A gas turbine engine component according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an external wall including adjacent bounding pedestals that extend from an external wall surface to establish a cooling passage, and including a common pedestal situated between the adjacent bounding pedestals to establish a first branched section and a second branched section of the cooling passage that join together at a merged section of the cooling passage. A method of fabricating a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.

    Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, at least one of an airfoil section and a platform section including a wall. The wall includes a plurality of pedestals having adjacent pedestals extending from an external wall surface to establish a respective cooling passage, and the cooling passage includes an inlet and an outlet. The adjacent pedestals are dimensioned such that the adjacent pedestals taper inwardly from the inlet in a first direction towards the outlet to establish a throat in the respective cooling passage. A method of fabricating a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.
