Abstract:
An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes pressure and suction surfaces that are provided by pressure and suction walls extending in a radial direction and joined at a leading edge and a trailing edge. A cooling passage is arranged between the pressure and suction walls and extending to the trailing edge. The cooling passage terminates in a trailing edge exit that is arranged in the trailing edge. Multiple rows of pedestals include a first row of pedestals that join the pressure and suction walls. The first row of pedestals is arranged closest to the trailing edge but interiorly from the trailing edge thereby leaving the trailing edge exit unobstructed.
Abstract:
An airfoil is disclosed, comprising an airfoil body and an internal cavity within the airfoil body. The internal cavity may comprise an outer edge comprising a first outer scallop and a second outer scallop, an inner edge opposite the outer edge, the inner edge comprising a first inner scallop and a second inner scallop, a leading edge spanning between the outer edge and the inner edge, and a trailing edge spanning between the outer edge and the inner edge and opposite the leading edge. Between the outer edge, the inner edge, the leading edge, and the trailing edge, the internal cavity may comprise eight columns of pedestals disposed axially relative to one another and axially between the leading edge and the trailing edge.
Abstract:
A lost core mold component comprises a first leg and a second leg with a plurality of crossover members connecting the first and second legs. The plurality of crossover members includes outermost crossover members spaced from each other. Adjacent ends of each of the first and second legs, and second crossover members are spaced closer to each other than are the outermost crossover members. Central crossover members extend between the first and second leg and between the second crossover members. The outermost crossover members extend for a first cross-sectional area. The second crossover members extend for a second cross-sectional area and the central crossover members extend for a third cross-sectional area. The first cross-sectional area is greater than the second cross-sectional area. The second cross-sectional area is greater than the third cross-sectional area. A gas turbine engine and component are also disclosed.

Abstract:
A turbine vane includes an inner platform and an outer platform joined together by an airfoil. The airfoil has a leading edge and a trailing edge joined together by a pressure side and a suction side disposed opposite the pressure side. The inner platform defines a plurality of first inner cooling holes and a plurality of second inner cooling holes that are fluidly connected to an inner cooling passage. The plurality of first inner cooling holes are disposed proximate the leading edge and extend towards the suction side and the plurality of second inner cooling holes are disposed proximate the trailing edge and the suction side and extend towards the leading edge.
